A very good answer.  This is also a good example of the subjective nature of
stereoscopic imaging.  Which direction is better depends upon several
variables (including all or those mentioned above) specific to a particular
view at a particular time.  Either direction may be valid and can produce a
good (or a bad) image, depending upon those factors that existed when the
scene was photographed.  I have seen beautiful examples both ways.
