I embroider on quilts all the time (rather ME than quilt, so I use the light designs for my quilting). If I am understanding your question, the design starts needle down with first stitch in the center. I would advance the design until the needle moves to the actual starting point if only to avoid cutting a jump stitch later, but it isn't really necessary. The design will stitch out and then some designs will return to the center position and take a last stitch Again, just have to clip that jump stitch. However, if you have software and can move stitches, I would delete them if it bothers you. It will not distort the design unless you delete a tie off stitch or a color change stitch. Easy enough to run the design in software and see it on the puter. Good luck and post pics!
