From the original question the OP was looking to adjust his saddle at home, hence my 0 degrees reference point.
So you're recommending that someone start at 0 degrees for a saddle that no one rides at 0 degrees. That's just awesome advice!!!
NOT. You might as well tell her to start at any random angle and adjust from there.
Sarcasm and jokes aside... while starting at 0 degrees won't do any harm, it's not a logical starting point for a curved saddle. Does common sense not have any role in your linear process? <-- That's a serious question.
