Are there any drawbacks (besides the math for the height and offsets) to using a Structural Floor as a roof if I wanted to have the deck profile visible in section view and then using a seperate roof with a variable height that only has the insulation in it?

Looking for some opinions....

Thanks.

It will potentiall caus an issue with Roof-mounted items like skylights, roof haches, roof drains, etc. that won't cut the roof"deck" because it will actuallu be a floor, not a roof. Other than that, that is how I do it.
