Point atmos speakers straight down or angled?

Dolby states the ceiling speakers should have a 45 degree dispersion pattern from 100hz-10khz if one is to face them directly pointing down. I'm currently using klipsch rb 10s for atmos speakers. The horn has a 90x60 dispersion pattern, obviously, at very high frequencies (greater than 16khz) they become beamy. I'm trying to get the best coverage for a wide seating area. I haven't measured off axis response yet for the rb 10s, but I know the R-15ms, which have a 90x90 dispersion are relatively flat to 16khz up to 90° off axis.

I'm a fan of aiming towards the LP. If not directly, at least some.

Depends on the speaker location, if following the atmos renderings the fronts reflect/aim to mlp and rears just behind. With dts x its not as important as I understand the spec.
