I almost always play and strum closer to the neck on the sound hole unless I’m going for an effect. I like more bass and the softer trebles I get doing that.
Demoing a guitar with a Capo...
The usual disclaimers.
I have T-Rex arms and couldn't strum over the soundhole on a dreadnought without really altering the way I hold a guitar. I never noticed what the OP says but maybe I'm biased because I always play between the soundhole and the bridge.
