i prefer to have it the other way around, with the foot loop above, and normally i just use my ATC in guide mode directly to my belay loop.

What is the advantage of the top prussic being extended as opposed to having it directly to the belay loop and the foot prussic on top?
Edit: I just thought it will be hard to push up the prussic on the belay loop since the rope below is unweighted
