But you have to alternate the pattern each time you mow or you'll get wheel ruts.

Only if you have a heavy mower and drive in the exact same spot every time. I can see it with a soft yard and a riding mower, but not so much with a push mower.

I definitely notice it with a push mower, but there's also the issue of the grass blades themselves always being cut in one direction. That'll produce a noticable effect over time if you don't vary mowing vector.
