If you have the bridge set as in the second picture, so that it's resting against the side of the hole, then when setting the intonation, you are also adjusting the string height slightly. And if you adjust the bridge for string height, then you affect the intonation slightly.

Far better to have the bridge posts sitting upright, even if you do fit some plastic tube around the posts to keep them upright but not floating.

Thanks Simon, appreciate the advice.
