Hmm. Interesting. Most tanks I see have irregular growth from static wter flow patterns, I'm surprised anyone would associate that problem now with lighting. I can see it though, if a large colony is in the periphery of the srop off zone.
I'll likely be using all 70 degree optics, so hopefully don't have that issue.

cant wait to see em today! Mine will be here tomorrow hopefully, looking forward to lighting my 35 up

ya....in reality any difference in growth patterns will likely be minimal (to the point where only a SPS guru would see the difference).....probably much like MH and T5 .....the corals farthest out towards the edges of the tank tend to "lean" a bit towards the point of the strongest light source......and like you said, flow will cause variances as well....
