FWIW: I treat Dropbox as a snapshot *copy* place. I never put my only copy of a thing into the Dropbox folder. I always copy it into the dropbox folder. I know that the Dropbox folder is a folder on my own computer (which is then copied up into the cloud somewhere). This means I have two copies of the thing on my own computer, plus the Dropbox version can be accessed (by me) from somewhere else (like my phone). That's handy. But I don't put my main version of a file there. I put a *snapshot* in there.
That's just how I'm comfortable using it.
