I looked up the user manual (https://samsontech.com/products/microphones/usb-microphones/c01upro/) which says to point the bar at the mouth when recording vocals for best sounds.
Manuals aren't infallible, though, or maybe I'm misunderstanding the wording. If you're familiar with the internals, then I'll take your word for it.
I don’t think the center line and top bar are the same thing. It’s probably just referring to the center of the front. Hypercardioid mics don’t perform well off-axis. The line after the quoted one is talking about plosives and how you can rotate the mic if they become an issue, assuming the diaphragm is pointing at your mouth.
I think by the "center line" they mean the 0º angle of the polar diagram, but the wording could definitely be better. I'm sure about it though, cause the capsule is oriented towards the front of the mic (where the "samson" logo and the led indicator are).
