the sidewalls help hold up the ceiling
If you're relying on the walls to hold the ceiling up, you better learn how to fasten sheetrock.

I find it a lot easier to hang the ceiling first then butt sides up to it. If you do the sides first then you're going to have to cut the ceiling to fit... which is a pain.
ceiling to
And right there is the only reason for doing the ceiling first. It is a very good reason at that.
If the walls are needed to hold it, or even 'help' hold it, the mechanic doing the hanging needs to find another business.

It just so happens that the sides do help hold it, but as you said they shouldn't be "needed" to help hold it.
