Quoted from LC

Yep, and obviously some of the higher-ups want it registered before they read your script, to ensure it's your work I suppose.


That's part of it, but more than that it's to protect themselves.  Registering one's script doesn't only establish you as the author, it also comes with a registration date.  Studios prefer registered scripts for the same reason they don't accept unsolicited material -- so that in case the studio already has a similar project in development, the writer can't accuse them of stealing their script.

It's all about CYA.

Hmm. I might use Library - seems the better option.
