Every side shot. That's not how a coat should balance. It should be a straight line down the back, or close to it. OP has "erect" posture, so he needs more room in the waist and chest. I learned this through trial and error myself.

Not sure where you get the straight line thing from. In fact, I prefer mine to follow my back curve if possible. If he has any vent issues at all, it's really negligible.

Here's a photo of someone's Depos suit and it does not go down in a straight line:
