There is a reason why a 50/50 balance is a gold standard for maneuverability. A "proper fit" is balance between power output, efficiency, and functionality and can include KOPS but the opposite, KOPS is that balance is just false.
where is this 50:50 number coming from? Weight balance on a bike is usually closer to 60R:40F and tire pressure should be set accordingly to near this balance. You should actually shift even more of this weight back on a descent because the slope changes the effective weight balance?
