Default Stand-up

When fishing stand-up gear, be 50 or 80, do you think that a bent butt gives you a tangible advantage over a straight butt?

If you had both butts for your rods, which one would you put on?

I prefer short bent butts over the straight butts in a stand up harness. It's easier to move around the boat with the extra length.
