50-50 Stringing

Question:

I am fairly new to stringing and I always string from head to throat on two-piece jobs. My friend who has been stringing for about seven years starts the crosses in the center of the frame (half on each side) and weaves half up toward the head and the other half down toward the throat, and ties off normally. He says it reduces stress on the frame. Seems logical to me and makes more sense than starting at the head. Are there any disadvantages of doing it this way? Is there any chance of damaging the frame or putting extra stress on it?
