I like my scopes mounted back towards me too. I can relate. It's not a popular scope mounting position around here.
Generous eye relief is the great equalizer.
True! That's one reason I've moved away from Leupold. Great ER at low powers, terrible at full power.
Most of the time, when guys are talking scope position they are really talking head position. They have a preferred head position, and mount the scope accordingly. I really can't abide crawling the stock; it's uncomfortable for me.
