Default true or not? setting rearend gears

well, I was talking to a co-worker today and he was a desiel machanic and he was telling me that by setting the ring drive wear pattern closer on the toe side(inner) and having the coast side a little closer to the heel side,
that it would not whine as much as if you were to set it back by the heel side.
by setting it closer to the toe side that once it wears in it tends to wear back to the heel side covering more of the ring gear.
true or not?
