I have tried that too, but never really saw the value in that, although that could be because my lack in tasting skills.
I’m grinding fairly fine (1.1 in the Aergrind), which seems to clog up the paper filter to such an extent that dripping is very slow. I also stir a lot to make extraction a bit faster, so I would say that I haven’t had trouble with extracting enough in the upright configuration.
I usually grind a little bit coarse, hence using the conventional method will drain my water fast. That's why inverted is a suitable method for me.
But, if you prefer finer ground, then I suggest conventional upright method.
That's the beauty of Aeropress, you can modify your brewing method to suits your needs.
