Height of Red Dot

From what I've read and my own study of the Red Dot height, it would appear that lower is better. I see set-ups that have a C-More mounted at 90 degrees (from normal) in an effort to get the 'dot' lower. I'm curious as to 'how low can you go?'

I've got a CZ with a C-More STS conventionally mounted on it. The bottom of the STS is touching (or a millimeter off) of the upper surface of the slide. It can't get much lower. The top of the slide is .437" off the center line of the bore and the dot is .75 off the top of the slide. That puts the dot at approximately 1.184" off the center line of the bore.

My question is two fold. 1) What would I gain with a different set-up? Could I get it much lower with a different set-up? And 2) Would it be cost effective?

TIA
