RR Matte Box with horizontal offset of Z's Gorilla Plate?

Hi and thx for your help. I'm ready to buy a DSLR viewfinder for my T2i and was ready to pre-order the Zacuto Z-Finder Pro when I came across this on their website:

"Please Note: The tapped holes on the bottom of the Gorilla plate are offset from the center of the lens. This is only a concern if you are using the Gorilla plate with other rigs that need the matte box in line with the lens/mounting screw hole."

Looking at my RR MB and rails, I need the MB in line with the camera's mounting holes. Am I missing something here? Is the Zacuto system based on horizontal offset of lens from tripod mounting centerline, or whatever it is I'm trying to say here?

Looks like I may have to go with the Z-Finder Jr, right?

Thx for any advice.

Kindest regards,
Harry
