Given that most management applications discover the SNMP interface instance with the IP address attached to it and display the interface description of that ifIndex only, I usually only use the logical interface (unit) description. Unless with multi-unit interfaces, where I document the physical remote side in physical interface level description, and the service description on the unit. Same goes for switches - using the unit-level description generally, with addition physical interface description for trunk remote system/port documentation.
