The use cases between dry compound and pre-mixed are very similar. However, most contractors prefer dry compound for several reasons. Dry joint compound dries faster than pre-mixed. Dry compound also provides better adhesion for mesh tape compared to wet compound.
Another reason most contractors use dry instead of wet is that dry compound can be stored if not mixed. If you try to store wet compound that has been used, often it will spoil and become moldy meaning you will be throwing out money with that compound.
Unlike the drywall vs plaster debate, the “which type of mud should I use” debate is constantly in motion. Nevertheless, the standard for now is to use a dry setting compound and mix it yourself. Dry setting compound does everything you need for each coat of mud and fills in every crack needed to complete a job.
