How do you pick a ring setting?

How should a diamond sit in setting?
When looking at the side profile of the ring you can notice how the stone is being held in the setting. If it sits low, closer to the band, it’s called a low setting, but if the stone is held up high and you can see space between the culet (bottom tip of the diamond) and the band, it’s considered a high setting.
