Reb Eliezer, you consistently post the machlokes Rashi/Tosfos and refer to the halacha as a compromise, and I keep posting that your are absolutely wrong. Stop it already. The reason for the angle is that the gemara says that placing the mezuzah (I think the loshon is) ‘kmin nagar” is possul. There is a machlokes what kmin nagar means, standing vertical or laying horizontal. We do a diagonal to avoid it being possul either way, not to compromise on the shittos. Enough already.
