Default oil pan tapped close to the bottom?

Just about to purchase a b series oil pan and then noticed the bung is pretty damn close to the bottom... my previous builds ive had them tapped closer to the top of the pan.

Any issues with this, or no worries?

TIA

Depends on how low, but no it's far from ideal.
