You brought up tukt, no?
I'm saying that a lower front rack would bring practical advantages (lower centre of gravity, more stable steering) whereas a tukt rear wheel wouldn't. It may indicate shorter, stronger stays, but that infinitesimal strength gain is pointless when it comes to functional bikes.
