   A response came back saying there was a flaw in using only one
   rotational position: allocation would be randomized.

You seriously misunderstood what Stefan said.  Allocation will be done
from any sectors that it *thinks* are in the same cylinder.  This is
very non-random.

Regardless, I've applied something similar to Stefan's patch already.
