Does anyone see any arrow tuning problems with this ?
No, I have no issues with my ILF or my recurve I had made with zero tiller on both limbs.
No problems for me. Maybe need to raise the nock up a touch or so.
None what so ever. I would love to see some math done to show how changing the draw point by 5/8" should alter tiller.
When I went from split to 3 under I never changed my nock set, it shouldn't be any different the other way. I'm sure others will disagree but just shoot it and tune as you go.
I shoot split, and if I have a bow built, I have it filleted even.

I suspect that most bowyers who make more than a few bows really don't tiller their bows for 3 under or split anyway. I think they tiller their bows for a certain preconceived tiller, like zero or + 3/16, which may be based on some testing they did once upon a time, or some information they inherited from someone or read about. Every bow is different, and if you were really going to tiller a bow for 3 under or split, you would have to shoot the bow until you discovered the correct tiller for that particular bow, which I guess is one advantage in having an ILF bow, because you could do this yourself even if the bowyer didn't have the time to do it. I would guess that 9 out of 10 bows I have had were easy to tune, regardless of whether they were "tillered" for split or 3 under. For the 1 out of 10 that wasn't, I either eventually figured something out or sold it out of frustration.
Bows tillered even shoot well either split or 3U. Bows tillered positive 3/16 tend to be harder to tune 3U.

Not the old rosewood recurve bows '59 to '69 I still shoot. Of eight factory bows I have on my rack, only one, and its a 2013 recurve, makes any difference. It makes more noise shooting it three under than split without any other set up adjustments.
The only difference should be nock height. A bow tillered even will have a lower nock height for both split and three under. Other than that, you will need to tune for each bow as to how it likes it.

I have only measured one of my bows and that was at request of a potential buyer. It was tillered even and it shot fine either way.
