Default Rocker Geometry

I was wondering if anyone on the forum had tried the Mid-Lift rocker geometry method? It was first patented by Jim Miller in 1982. This YouTube Video is a variation of that method but just looks at the valve side at mid-lift. This is not the centering the rocker roller on the valve stem method.

I am building a spare engine and am pondering taking some detailed measurements to determine if the ratio and lift are more accurate using this method.
