Default Does servo spindle position matter?

In a GP Stick 60 ARF, three servos are installed in the tray side-by-side, with all three spindles positioned forward and all the servo labels aft. Will the center servo (elevator) lose power or performance if I reverse its orientation so that the spindle is positioned aft and the the label forward? (There would be no change to orientation of the throttle or rudder/nosewheel servos.) Would the performance results differ if I were reversing orientation of an aileron servo with just a short control rod? When and why does spindle position matter? Thanks.
