I would agree. Also, this way you can plan on having a hose bib within the birdcage/lanai space, have the slabs look the same, etc. However, folks are all different. Some enclose the Lanai right away, some expand that wonderful outdoor living space. Personally, I really like our outdoor living space and value it more than additional square footage....but many others prefer not to have it at all. To each their own.
