I think it varies by how ur built
If u stand 2 guys sideways in mirror, I have seen significant variance in WHERE the center of shoulder socket sits.
Some bros have shoulders toward the chest, with resultant back-dominant build and comparitive narrow area for pecs. These guys are ripping their arms out of the socket to lift behind the neck presses and I first noticed it when I kept seeing a good friend of mine (built this way) hitting bak of his head on up-presses.
Im built the reverse: shoulder joints towards rear, large area for pecs, smaller back. In my case, behind the neck presses are way more natural, and I DONT smack th back of my head on up-press. Its a more natural lift for me, so I like overhead presses, and even prefer them behind the neck.
I think it could be in how we are each built... jmho, GND
