I like to do it because I want the writer to easily see what text was altered and why.
If that's what you want to do, then you probably should use change tracking. Whilst this records your edits in-line with the text, it's quite easy to toggle the view between the original, edited and 'both' views. It also makes it easy for your document's author to accept/reject your edits.
