I usually seat the frog by sighting down the bed and adjusting it until that plane clears the back of the mouth. The frog can be backed some more after that. I've needed to do that to fit thicker irons. I'm not sure how you accomplish what you're saying; by backing the frog, until the iron touches the back of the mouth, it's more likely that the contact will be on the bevel.
Sorry for the confusion.
If the blade is on the frog with the back side against the frog, the contact with the edge of the mouth will not be against the bevel.
Sometimes a 6" metal rule has been used to perform the task.
Think about this, if having the frog a hair back from from the mouth will cause "Advancing the iron will cause deflexion and slight lifting" then some of the blade will be resting on the mouth if the mouth and the frog bed are in alignment. This will add support to the blade.
