Roots follow gravity now matter how you plant them, but yes it is better to place the root down as much as possible.

I wouldn't say it doesnt matter...the plant will use less energy turning itself around if you place it down as much as possible.

In nature it doesn't matter, but since you have the control over it I'd say it definitely does in this case.

I disagree, you want to give your seeds every advantage you can to speed up their germination and use their reserve energy making the new leaves instead. So it DOES matter.
