Load... vs Load As...
One of my team just got crossed up by using Load As... where Load... does what he wanted.
Besides the changes in the folder structure on the disk, are there other real differences between the two?
When is appropriate to Load As... a component rather than loading it?
Does a single developer working on a project normally use more than one mechanism to load a component? Does a team always use a uniform approach to loading components?

One answer
You can think of "Load As" as just an advanced form of "Load" that
allows you to explicitly control the location to which the files get
loaded ("Load" just loads them into a default place). In the "Load As"
wizard, that initial value for that location is the location used by the
"Load" wizard.
As to whether a developer ever needs to use "Load As" ... that depends
on whether you (or more commonly, your build system) requires that files
be loaded somewhere other than the default place where they are loaded
by RTC.
