I'm a trim and sew. I don't need the extra under my binding as I apply it snug on the trimmed squared edge. When I put my binding on, I don't want extra steps. I also like my binding already folded and ironed. I cut my binding strip at 2.5" and then fold it and Iron it in half. Sew it on, flip and sew the other side! It is the last hurrah of finishing. I also do the same with a scalloped edge.
