Crowing
I’m just speculating here but I think the recommendation to set them pointy end to center is more about the way the eggs roll than the air cell. If you roll an egg it doesn’t go in a straight line it will turn towards the pointy end because the big end covers more distance per rotation than the small end.I'm guessing it won't matter too much if I guess on some when setting them in the incubator because they are laying on their side anyways. Incubator recommends pointy towards center.
In other news Black laid her first egg since I don't know when. She's an F1 and the egg is very similar to Jetts(F0) eggs in shape.
Either way it was a nice surprise today.

By placing the eggs pointed end to the center they will naturally try to roll towards the center of the incubator and around the circle. If you put them in pointy end out they would likely bang into the sides of the incubator and the other eggs as the turner plate forces them around the circle.
