Default Aileron differential

I understand that one way to test aileron differential is to fly the model level heading into the wind or downwind, pull to a 45-degree
climb, and roll with aileron.
A) If the model rolls without yaw - Make no adjustments

B) If the model exits yawed in opposite direction of roll - Increase differential, Increase UP-THROW on aileron

C) If the modem exits yawed in direction of roll - Decrease differential, Decrease UP-Throw on aileron

Now this is my question, why only adjust the up aileron and not touch the downward deflected aileron? Is it to maintain the roll rate?
Is this a good test or is there another favorite that you guys like to use?
