For the Lead Official in 3-man games: End-line throw-in front-court position

When the ball is located outside the 3 point line, clearly the Lead will position himself on the inside (closer to the basket).

When the ball is located at the free-throw line intersection, the Lead must be positioned on the outside.

I had someone say that he always stands on the outside of the ball, unless this puts him outside the 3 point line intersection.

Question: do you guys like to position yourself on the inside of the player when the ball is located between the free throw and 3-point lines. For example, 2/3 of the way out to the 3 point line. (i.e., better coverage of a post matchup.)
