Far be it from me to say that we are drifting somewhat as I am someone in a glass house on such matter - however - to respond to the question that the OP asked about which flights are the best for minimising jet lag - I think that we agree that in both directions work best for the majority of us. I strongly dissuade people from taking sleep aids in flight as if, God Forbid, there was an emergency zombies are not the best people to have to evacuate or follow instructions if they are half asleep. The best is flying when you would normally go to sleep or afternoon nap. Sweet dreams!
