P.S.: I forgot to add: This means that you can size the bike so it fits you correctly when you ride it. For a production frame, get the frame that offers the correct top tube length, rather than worry about the seat tube.
For a custom bike, it's a matter of aesthetics where you want the top tube. With a lower top tube, you will have more spacers/longer quill exposed on the stem, and longer seatpost showing. With a higher top tube, you will have a more direct connection between seat and handlebars... It's a personal choice which you prefer.
