I'd accept your "whatever works for you" advice provided you are not preparing your file for anyone other than YOU to use or view. If others are to use it or even SEE it -- they are not going to come to you necessarily for an explanation of your display methods...they are going to draw their own, probably incorrect conclusions and base their file upon their misconceptions.
