Index() function or Index by the dot in a variable (Example: local!user.name)

Certified Associate Developer
Is there an advantage one over the other? In my current project, using the index with the dot is questioned as bad practice, requesting to always use the index() function, my question is, is this really necessary? what are the reasons? I understand that sometimes it is good to control the default value and set a null.
