A subject that has many different opinions.
First and foremost do it the way that you are most comfortable. If you want to spend the time winching go ahead.
Personally I prefer to back tractors on. I have driven them forward on but gave that up many moons ago. If there is a need to drive on (nesting two on a trailer) the winch may get cranked up. If the one being driven on is on steel the winch will definitely get used.

Once again do what you are comfortable with.
I will add that loading and unloading is probably the most stressful time for me driving a tractor, but it does get easier.
