RESULT:

2A) As per my view, Connected wall with associated level is beneficial, in same case we need to change the level for certain distance, in that case if we draft walls are unconnected than it should not follow the levels. These levels are also considered as floor height of the building or important level in elevation drawing. so the walls are connected through out the all levels is beneficial one only.

2B) As per my view, we always used to construct bottom to top only, so we used to draw in the same manner like using height option to draw walls. If we draft substructure like pile or something below to it we could use depth option rather than choosing height. This kind of method is convenient for all.
