I am neutral. When I read your response to Eric's "top down" suggestion, I didn't quite get much more than "I started going this way, and I do not want to change to the other direction.", which was what I had the most trouble with. If your justification for the approach to start from building a tiny bottom layer that will need to be dismantled soon and repeat that (which sounds somewhat wasteful) were more convincing, I may have felt differently.
