What portion of the saddle determines height?

A friend of mine and I had a discussion on saddle height. He points out many people measure it from the bottom bracket up the seat post to the top of the saddle and that is your height. Some measure from the bottom bracket to where the saddle clamps are because of set back. He made a point it should be where the sit bones make contact on the saddle which generally is the widest portion of the saddle and emphasized that it becomes more critical if the rear portion of the saddle rakes up like many do and if there is a tilt, that effects the measurement. He has a good valid point, what would be your takes on this?
