Probably true for LA folks, who rarely deal with cold temps. For those who, like me, are in a colder climate, DO the chop. In cooler weather I've gone half way into the top-down process, then looked at the back window. Often as not it's started to fold with a sharp point somewhere in the middle which, when it's cold, has just gotta be hard on the vinyl. The "chop" eliminates this stress on the material.
