Mostly I use the preview. Remember I have processed over 100 e-books and only had a problem with 3 of them (at widely different times; the first was several months ago - about 20 e-books, the second was maybe a dozen books later, and the last is the one I am currently working on). All three required massive correction and reformatting of text.

You must be formatting for personal use on a dedicated device.
Preview should be fine for Placement (proportion) of a text novel (no charts or diagrams...).
Reflow, system (device) supplied fonts/layout, screen size and orientation will tend to fight with your wishes
on other users devices (books intended for distribution).
Something that does not work in preview, probably won't work on most devices.
OTOH Just because Preview/Viewer looks great, it might fail on a device (preview/viewer are very forgiving)
