Default oil cooler, fittings up or down?

The instrctions from Z1 say to fill the oil cooler with fresh oil, to prevent a dry start scenario. Modshacks DIY suggests to install the core with fittings facing down so all the oil can be completly drained.

If I install the core, fittings down the oil cooler will have to be empty and might cause a dry start. Ill be able to completly drain the oil every oil change. Wont this cause a dry start every oil change?

if i install it fittings up i can prevent the dry start but will always have a quart of dirty oil in the car. this seems like the better option.

am i missing something?
