True. In the original message, I was under the impression that sewings
where the filling met the rib, usually done into the pinhole side, were
meeting the turn stitch side - and my answer was based on experience in
solving that problem myself, where working under and up into the pinhole
side was awkward.

I would sew into anything available of necessity - the solid cloth stitch
of a rib is available, and a sewing can be made into it.  Perhaps it
*shouldn't* but it *could* and it has, by my hand - the effect was
pleasing - at least to me. It resolved a problem and prevented Honiton
shreddies (torn threads, torn hair...).
