I mostly use beck pickups for pretty specific stuff, usually very effected. But for standard guitar tones, I agree that bridge is best.
Which pickups are the best for Devil's Haircut?

I'm super gassy about the switching scheme in the American Deluxe Jaguar. With the two picks ups and then the parallel/in series switch. So good.

I was gonna wire it for master tone and put a switch for that where one of the tones goes but 1: anodised guard is annoying to drill and cost a lot, and 2: I haven't had the strings off it in ages

Think I'm going to do something like this on my strat project. I only like neck, neck+middle, and bridge...so If I could add neck+bridge to that, or ditch the middle entirely for it, might have a winner (for me at least).

I swapped wiring spots on my Steinberger Spirit so the bridge position was in the middle. Never got around to swapping out the Strat sized EMG Select, though, just the Z-90s in for the humbuckers, so it might not be the best combo middle-and position to keep in all cases.
