EDIT: another double tap. I swear I’m only clicking once when I post. I dunno what’s up.
I have a few (old M16 style and a couple aftermarket ones) and I have them timed to one prong at 12 o'clock. Primarily for aesthetics but also for keeping flash out of the sight picture by not shooting straight upwards.
I went open slot up, my thought was to direct downward gasses out diagonally to mitigate the dust cloud when low.

The originals were not timed.

Same here. It takes a little more time and patience but if you have the where-with-all & shims timing the 3-prong F/H with a prong at 12 o'clock just seems correct.
