Adam,

Re:  *"...though I'm not sure if I understand what BB will get a specific 
chainline"*

That will be crank and implementation specific.  

Since this is Riv-centric we can use the concept of a square taper triple 
mountain crankset as an example.  It will require a specific BB length to 
achieve the proper chainline for the standard implementation, which in this 
case is 47.5mm for 135mm rear spacing.

I you want to:
 - Run as a double and rm granny, then reduce spindle by 6mm (mountain 
double/triple and preferred single speed 47.5mm chainline)
 - Run as a triple on a bike with 130mm rear spacing, then reduce spindle 
by 5mm (road triple 45mm chainline)
 - Run as a double and rm granny plus run on a 130mm rear road spaced bike, 
then reduce spindle by 11mm (and yes, for some cranks, you cannot find 
spindles that small)
 - Run as a double with bash, then increase spindle by 6mm
