Default Do top and bobbin threads have to match in weight?

I have read both ways, but for piecing and probably quilting, I have read here to put 50 weight thread in bobbin, don't remember exactly why, but more will go onto bobbin, for one thing. Other places I have read where top and bobbin thread must match in weight and "material", i.e., cotton vs. cotton wrapped poly, etc. Opinions?
