Bill,
It's all personal preference. I like top loaders because they are smaller and stack better than Card Savers. Plus it's a lot easier to get a card in and out of a top loader (at least IMO), even with a sleeve (which I always use). The people that use Card Savers do so for the very reason you mentioned and I agree that they are best for shipping/stabilizing cards, but I don't put my top loaders in my pocket upside down while I'm on a trampoline so I never understood using them at home. But that's just me. Card Savers are cheaper, too, if I'm not mistaken -so that could be a factor for dealers and/or bigger collections.
