By the way, I did end up buying one, and for now I'm hanging it right side up.
Well first granted the word "better" in the OP is probably a bit too subjective and vague.
However I don't think I would be so quick to dismiss such comments as simply all "tongue-in-cheek"

Here is an article on this very subject. All four of the reason have been mentioned in this thread , one reason addressing possible "audible advantage" was rather arbitrarily misquoted and then dismissed in this thread by virtue of a supposed vast majority of "zillions" in disagreement, but the article and the rest of the photos appear to substantially dilute the veracity of such dismissal

From that article



From googling the search terms " Pictures of Recording Vocalist in a studio"
Note: one of these is not even upside down but all are elevated slightly .
