I'll center things up on the flatbed. In my van I prefer securement over balance. Having my product up against the nose of the van aids in keeping my load secure.
Ideal load balance

Balance always rides the best. Balance handles the best. Being drive heavy might aid in traction but unbalance braking is bad.

While technically this is correct practically I don’t think it could ever happen. I have never seen a semi trailer with a negative tongue load. As mentioned if that were the case when you unhitched the trailer front would lift up in the air. The axles on the trailer even in the forward most positions are back far enough that this is very unlikely to happen.
