There's a post on here from Delicious somewhere explaining that they opt for customers to use a stock compression or 12:1 compression built block when going FI, because there was no need to lower compression. I have a buddy locally who just built his block through CSG via Bluemoon Performance, and they opted for a 12:1 compression. Both of these companies are regarded as companies that know their stuff, and both chose to use stock-ish compression.

Just sharing some knowledge about what those companies prefer, not trying to tell you you're wrong. Many different ways to make power.
