On a plain-Jane LE6920, with the carrying handle removed, is there room on the receiver to mount a folding rear sight and an Aimpoint H-1 with everything, including the standard front sight, in their correct relationships?

Absolutely
What do you mean "everything"?

Most rear buis will be the same height as the colt front sight (Troy Stubby BUIS won't work since they are for piston guns). The most important part is getting the right Optic riser so you get absolute co witness.

I think it's something you have to try for yourself. I tend to go with lower 1/3 simply because the extra height puts the red dot in a more comfortable position for me. I also find it more convenient for guns with a fixed front sight.
But, like everything else in optics, stocks, slings... what works for me won't necessarily work for you.
