grid features use cases

Hey, i have a few questions regarding some grid features:

1. When should you use the

span

span

keyword over line numbers? e.g.

grid-column: span 2;

grid-column: span 2;

instead of

grid-column: 1 / 3;

grid-column: 1 / 3;

2. In what situations should you use

grid-template-areas

grid-template-areas

or named line numbers e.g.

[xyz-start] 1fr [xyz-end]

[xyz-start] 1fr [xyz-end]

, is it so things are easier to keep track of?

Thank you in advance.
