But, based on the definitions of logging flight time by the FAA/95-1, I've never done it or needed to do it to change my competitiveness. And it wouldn't have changed anything anyway. If I was a mil FW dude, I maybe would have added a conversion depending on the app and my times.
This is a great post and everything that, frankly, I was too lazy to write. You have what's on your 759 - leave it at that. Anything else will draw attention during an interview. And if that conversion puts you over a required minimum, well, I wouldn't want to have that discussion in a job interview. Similarly, I've talked to guys who 'converted' some of their PI time to PIC due to sole manipulator. I went straight 759 PIC time. Just like TT, I believe this opens a door that you do not want to go near during an interview.
