I think there probably is a correct answer for any given set of components, but it relies on a very detailed analysis of the stress distribution.The properly correct solution is to use hubs designed specifically for radial spoking to a specific rim, to ensure so far as possible that the load path is directed along the axis of the spoke all the way from the nipple seat to the hub shell.
