What would Elaine Gould do?
"When a final pitch is extended by a series of tied notes, it is
acceptable (and a convention) to end the slur with the first whole-bar

So she would accept both examples in your first staff, as well as the
first example in your second staff - but the second example your
second staff only "in cramped conditions".
Thanks, Brian! I shall continue to follow The Goulden Rule, now that I
know what it is.
