As you're seeing, you'll get varied opinion. There isn't a "right" or "wrong" answer, it's about what works best for you.
Personally, I feel rope drop and/or getting there "early" is 100% unnecessary. It's no more productive than getting there later and/or staying late, especially if you know how to use FP+. We typically show up at 10am, and I'm quite confident we can get as much done as the person who shows up at 7am waiting for the park to open.
If you have reasons not to be early, then don't. You'll be fine. If you want to be early and everyone is OK with it, then do it. Either way will work.
