I agree completely with this, although I will have a nearly 1:1 pairing with my wife's rifle and my lightweight training one.
I've settled on a 12" DD Lite handguard with X300 in front of fixed sight at 12:00 as a common front end setup, and an ACS stock with LT660 mounted optic as my default setup, and from that only minor modifications to that silhoeuette makes it simplest (e.g. a 9" rail on an 11.5" SBR, or folding sights and low powered variable for a recce rifle), but having that commonality means I'm not scrapping muscle memory to move to and from a range abuse rifle.
