I don't know what the set up would be like with the rail installation but would likely be similar as even the rails puts the hitch point somewhere slightly in front of the axle.
Most would recommend that turning 90 degrees isn't good for the trailer axles anyway so should be avoided. That said, I haven't been in a situation yet where I couldn't make my turn. I haven't tested the tightest degree of turn I can achieve but it's pretty tight.

I don't ,and never have turned 90 degrees. As said I have turned pretty tight, but I am sure no where near 90. Pretty sure I can't unless I move the slider back .
I know for sure my rail mount Andersen is not centered ,nor forward of the center of the axle, pretty sure just slightly back of center. Will check to see when I put it back in.
You say your gooseneck ball is 4" in front of center, is that one of those offset balls. Looking at my puck system on my 2014 the gooseneck hole looks real close to the center of the axle.
