Our TV isn't optimally mounted according to either of the links. We have a 65" TV mounted 65" above the floor on the wall and flat to the wall (not tilted). We sit 14' back from the plane of the screen. We mounted it there because the house was pre-wired for it there. I had worried about neck strain when we mounted it, because I have had neck issues in the past. We have not found it to be a problem. I find that we don't tilt our heads. We pretty much look straight ahead and look slightly upward at the screen. You can try this yourself. Look straight ahead and then look slightly above where you were looking without tilting your head. The closer you are to the TV, the more you would need to look up, but backed up a bit, it isn't the problem I thought it would be. YMMV.
Follow Ups:
I'll have to take a chair down to the unfinished basement and experiment. In our case, we will be about 8 or 9 feet from the screen. The sofa will be a good 6 feet out from the back wall because my desk will have to go in an area behind the sofa. I'll be moving out of my home office upstairs as my wife will take that over for her quilting hobby.
The closer you are to the TV obviously the angle increases. And of course you may not have any need to mount it any higher. I'm just saying that mounting it slightly higher won't require any neck strain. Your eyes just roll slightly upward. The best optics will be straight on.
