I just swapped out the winter set in April so I know this happened recently.

The only thing I'd do is -- I'd keep that new tire in the front throughout your tire rotation cycles. That way, it wears down faster.
While I agree with you too... articles have all said to put the better tires in the back for better stability. Although I never understood this... because on a FWD, then the tire with more tread will always be in the back...
