Someone mentioned a while back, that it's better to place a dynamic

But I'm curious what's the advantages or disadvantages of doing it
this way?
Is it because no matter what happens to the document when you resize
it in layout mode, the dynamic mark is in the same exact spot?
This is just one of several advantages: The auto-placement is much
better for note attached expressions, they can avoid a low note, and
be placed accurately in relation to the note.
Playback is also more accurate.
Let me say, relative to this, that the thing to do in orchestral
scores, where a dynamic may be attached to many or all staves, is to
put them in as measure attached, then use TGTools/Modify/Expressions to
change them to note-attached. You don't even have to go through the
staff-assignment routine, because TGTools will, if you ask it, delete
the dynamic from empty measures and move it away from rests.
