I enjoy using the "Import and set QTY" button because that pops up a dialog where I can select whether parts are inches or MM. But invariably, this workflow breaks up my drawing into separate parts. Often this is not an issue, but sometimes I need to keep the layout I'm importing.
Dragging a file in from a file explorer window pops up "Grid layout" or "keep placement" buttons, so I can keep my nest arrangement. But this offers no inch or mm select option, so some imports need to be scaled after importing. I prefer to keep my software settings in inches, but probably a good half or more of the drawings I import are in mm. Here is an example of a time when I can nest much more efficiently than the auto-nester, and want to keep placement:
