And a cartridge manufacturer can and never will specify an overhang dimension for a cartridge. It's not his business.And do you what the effect is of a 2mm tolerance in overhang, your suggestion 17-19mm? First of all both are wrong and a "wrongness" of 2mm will place the null points (if you know what that is) completely off the playing surface of the LP.

This is where I got that 17-19mm number; from the ORigin Live website:The tip of the stylus should be 240mm from the pivot. In approximate terms, the armboard mounting hole should be such that the cartridge stylus will "overhang" the record centre (spindle) by a distance of around 17-19mm for an arm that is of 229-250mm Effective Length (distance from stylus to armboard mounting hole centre). Roughly check this by swinging the stylus over the record spindle.
