The control point I commonly use it the neutral one where position is CRITICAL to its implementation. Other control points particular placed on the sky would not exhibit the issue as much.

I straighten then crop as my PC always converted to TIFF quicker with a cropped image, speed gain was proportionate to the severity of crop.
