Is the optimal seating arrangement different in STTs?

The conventional opinion in poker is that it is best to act directly behind an aggressive player. In ring games and cash games I prefer this and it works well for me. But I have changed my opinion about this in STTs.

It seems to me that most of the "real" game is played on or around the bubble. I actually prefer to be the SB with the solid player in the BB. It makes it easier for me to put them on a range so my guesses about whether to push or not are more accurate.

I also find the weak-average players are not aggressive enough on the button in late game so I would naturally prefer them there.

Now, when I sit at a table and a solid player sits right behind me, I don't automatically switch seats anymore, I actually prefer it.

Does anyone make this adjustment in STT relative to other forms of poker?

Agreed.
