Taxiway centre line off a runway, lead on or lead off?

For performance and professionality, are yellow taxiway centrelines for lead on or lead off purposes?

I always thought the latter as you need help in getting off in a hurry rather than getting on. It also gives you an excuse to make a smooth 90 turn on and use all runway rather than a slow gradual kind of sweep if you follow the centreline in most instances.

A reference would be really useful too.

Thank you.
