Default Bow-Mounted Paddle Leash: Routing?

I'm committed to a bow-attached paddle leash on my WaveWitch surf kayak because
it's used around swimmers and having that 30-lb log washing through the bathing
zone is a no-no. Bow-mounted bc I want it to weathervane into the whitewater
and not rip out the attachment point.

Seems like there are two options for routing the leash:
---------------------------------------------------
- Down the center, between the knees.

- Off to one side or the other.
---------------------------------------------------

I can think of pros and cons for each.

Is one more commonly-accepted method than the other?
