I only use a buffer level properties drawer with Org-roam.

But I have difficulties to understand why Org-roam use it and not use a
heading at lever 1 with an ID.

Maybe for the export ?

I had never understand if, with org-mode, using the top-level heading
for the document title is a good idea. Doesn't it cause problem with
export ?

I got the same kind of questioning with Org-ql. For example, if I made a
blog with Org-mode, org-publish and Org-ql.

I write 1 blog post per org-mode file and I want to automatically build
the home page of the blog with Org-ql. For Org-ql, in each post file, I
need to have a top level heading representing the blog post. But if I do
that, it will break the HTML export ?
