Flusher? Really?? Maybe you perceive it that way, it's your technique, or tools, but I don't think the physics of riveting supports that position. In my own build I back riveted one wing skin and traditionally riveted all of the others. If I told you to go pick which one was back-riveted you'd just be guessing as to which one it is as they all look outwardly the same.
The one thing I do like abut back riveting is it can be done solo. But produce a better rivet? Not in my experience - YMMV.....
