I think it depends on your cooker. if you get a lot of airflow, I think you need to go hotter to avoid drying out because (unproven hypothesis alert) it seems like the "breeze" slows it down. if you're in something smaller, with heat source beneath, and more humidity, might want to go lower temp.

Interesting hypothesis. This may be highly cooker dependent. My KBQ stick burner has two cans and does a lot of air. It creates an amazing bark and color AND cooks significantly Quicker, like roughly 20% quicker. I look at it like a convection oven. I do add a water pan to keep humidity up, keep the bottom of cooker clean, and keep from cooking / smoldering the fat & drippings.
