I like doing both, and both in TS2! TS2 has matchless game play and while its build mode lacks some features of 4, I can still do lots of things 4 can only dream about (water tool, terrain tools that actually work, Mansard roofs with functioning windows, almost unrestricted number of levels...). Any simming I do is in TS2!
You should check out Teoalida. https://www.teoalida.com/about/aboutme/
This guy (or gal) has experimented with The Sims 2 building a lot. He (or she) has made comments about the solar direction, shadows, neighborhood layouts and the number of levels you can get in TS2.
TS2 does allow you to build very high up, but that is limited by the camera height and by the ability to see everything (the lotimposter) in the neighborhood.
I prefer to set a limit at 10 stories. Any taller than that, and the game may fail to render the lotimposter correctly, or the camera height will fail to go high enough.
I think they meant the set level of five without cheats. TS4 is still not as versatile after seven years.
