Weird, I'd never noticed the offset of the blade when scoring. I only use it on (cheap) melamine. It leaves a very clean edge, even using the correct melamine blade I find it still needs scoring.
You can set the Festool up to do it easily. I would consider the Bosch if these weren't money making tools. Of course there weren't any options when I bought mine.

I have the Mafell, love it, never use the scoring function. It sets the score line a few tenths of a mm in from the cut line so when you go to line up a panel, butt joint or whatever, there’s a tiny gap.
With the correct sharp blade you don’t get any breakout anyway so I’ve never really seen the point.
