Why not get used to it? I'm not DIR, nor do I claim to be... I do still, however, agree with johnnythan on the issue.
I dive with an atomic z1 reg, and my first stage points downward, much like WaterDawg's scubapro. The problem isn't that the first stage is 'poking' anybody in the head, it's that when you look up (read: forward) the back of your head bumps it. It's not enough to bother me per se, but it was of small concern, which is why I talked to my instructor/dive buddy about it. His consensus was much the same as johnnythan's...
In closing, I still don't see the problem with getting used to it.. It's not like I'm getting used to a leaking inflator hose, or an overweighting problem...
