Cutting "as low as possible" or "the lower the better" ends up working against you many ways. 1)stresses the lawn as the ground dries out much faster 2) more opportunity to weeds to take hold(healthy turf chokes out weeds) 3)encourages thatch buildup 4)clippings, leaves, and other "debris" can't be hidden in shorter turf. All those issues and with the deck all the way down, no matter what the design, will act like a plow pilling the leaves in front of the mower.
