REVIT - Attach or not Attach to floors

It is quite common for REVIT users to attach walls ot floor slabs.  This is not a bad thing if you are not sure if the slab thickness is in flux.  My preference is to not attach the walls to the slab unless it is a complex form.

My preference is to set the walls from Level to Level and then give the walls a negative offset (slab/ structure thickness) from the top level.  This gives you the freedom to move walls around without dragging the slab by accident as it may occur in some cases.
