For those who have installed TA rings on a 5 bolt spider, where do you
orient the pin relative to the crank arm? In this case (TA crank with TA
rings), one chainring bolt is "hidden" behind the arm. I figured the pin
would go behind the arm as well, but that's not an option. So, if the arm
here's another thread discussing the T.A. drop pin and a couple good pics.
I'd guess the spacer is used to lengthen the set-up if there's a larger gap
involved, between chainring and crankarm.
Having the screw head on the inside is apparently correct but seems
undesirable - why didn't they
I just don't understand that solution. All the chain-drop-stoppers I've
seen are a small grub screw that threads into the chainring, there's no
screw/spacer on the backside of the ring.

Yes, I’ve installed many TA chainrings, and that screw/nut/spacer is to be
used when the crank is a 5-arm spider. The s/n/s goes on the out-facing
side of the big ring to prevent chain drop jamming.
With a 4-arm crank, no need for s/n/s.
