Top row uses the Togglers through the metal studs.
Right, and best.
Bottom row is togglers to drywall only in mounting holes offfset to to the metal studs, since if you try to drill another set through the metal stud, for the bottom holes, the togglers would overlap vertically.
The back piece of the toggler is about two inches long. What mount has top and bottom mount holes about two inches apart? The closest ones I can remember having seen is about four inches. For them to overlap, the mount would have to have top and bottom. Also, you could put the togglers in with the back pieces slightly tipped off the vertical so they wouldn't overlap.
The forces on a TV mount can be thought of this way: If the TV were to move, it would move in two ways. It would move down the wall (shear force), and both upper and lower bolts prevent this; and it would pull off the wall (pullout force), where the upper bolts, then the lower bolts, would be pulled out. While the TV mount is solid on the wall, the pullout force of the top lower bolts actually creates a pushing force on the lower bolts, helping them hold the mount in place.
