I asked Keven before mounting my Nitto R14 rear rack on my Bombadil as I didn't like the look of the rack stays going all the way down to the dropouts. He said it didn't matter, so I run it to the mid seat-stay braze-ons and have had no issues.
I've also seen it both ways on RBW employees' bikes and demo bikes at different times.
