What a nitwit system. Almost every digital system now has the ability to dial in tiny amounts of delay, or on reply to bring it forward. Of course you could just get out a tape measure if your obsession is this bad. Real life does NOT have perfect phase correlation. Few Famous recordings have it, and for many, the errors are part of the sound. Your measuring plan assumes it’s in an anechoic chamber, because above the kit are large reflectors, which will give your mics a double hit from the kit and snare due to that longer pat. It’s quieter of course, but there. Most drum recordings have to be compromised. It’s far more important to tune them, damp them and that changes the sound. The player may often choose their sound. It may be wrong for recording. One person will win, and usually it’s the player, unless they’re just playing a session for a fee, when they’ll be happy with anything you do.
if I saw somebody measuring out distances with mic cable, I’d know they were probably also the owner of a vinyl turntable, with a mains cable costing a grand, and the pickup arm oriented with the Earth’s magnetic field for ultimate performance.
it’s hard to take these things seriously as they combine physics with ridiculousness but those who believe it can hear it. I don’t, and I can’t. If you do it, and it improves your sound, that great for you but not for me.
