Being a student of Brandt and Brown I most often lace up my own and wheels for other people with an inside pulling / mirror lacing but do not feel it essential for all wheels and have used the reverse outside pulling / mirrored when there are no issues with a derailer as there is with a fixed gear or three speed.

Sometimes a guy just wants to mix it up a little and I have had no issues with any wheels I have built for myself or an ever growing base of happy customers.

The identical spoking pattern is the easiest to lace up which is why it is seen on mass produced wheels.

They all work but I feel the first two methods provide the most even and symmetrical layout and feel they make for a better built wheel.

You forgot crows foot lacing which was once widely used and still very popular from both an aesthetic and functional point of view but is something you will only see in hand built wheels.

On used hubs you do need to go with the previous lacing as to avoid creating stress risers which can lead to broken spokes and I deal with a lot of nice quality, albeit used hubs as I cannot see discarding perfectly serviceable components.

A great number of my own hubs were used and I can't even remember how everything is laced (too many bikes) but can say that over 10's of thousands of km I have not had any issues.
