In general the floor will be stiffer over-all if the flooring is

Remember, some subfloors are made of T&G boards, which are run
perpendicular or diagonal to the joists. This means the finish floor is
often parallel with the joists, and still correct.

I didn't see a mention of the subfloor material in the original message.
