Basically, that's my thought too, his project, his money, put the
pulls anywhere he wants - I wouldn't even have asked.. If it was for a
paying customer, then it'd be the customer's call.

People without "things" are just intelligent animals.
When you have a bunch of drawers in a cabinet,
I think it always looks better if the hardware
is lined up in both directions if at all possible.

I'm having trouble imagining an 11" height drawer with the handle
centered... I guess it would work, but it seems awkward..
when I built my first tool cabinet, back when noah thought it might
rain, I put drawers in it from 6" to 12" high... I put all the drawer
pulls about 2" from the top of each and it's still working..

That's a tall drawer. I'd be inclined to mount the handles somewhere
in alignment with the drawer slides / runners, to avoid putting any
twisting force on them.
As others have said, it's up to you -- whatever you think looks good.
A trick that I've used is to temporarily mount the pulls with
double-sided tape and then move them around to see what I like before
settling on a final arrangement.
