noticed that with armor, they usually attack the hit points, but without armor, they can quite easily attack the damage-dealing units/angels.

A valuable observation – we should re-check this statistically...

Regarding LeBron's mistake about the Consulate and the two-level building:

the only way to break a Consulate with a starting army.

As I understand it, the emphasis here should have been on the word starting...
And besides, that wasn't the main point of LeBron's statement, was it?
On the topic – summarizing LeBron's post, I'll express the following opinion:
It all depends on the specific situation; you also need to consider other parameters (the hero, the current development, the opponent's hero, what you plan to take...). There are many important parameters that make it impossible to judge accurately and immediately say that attack is definitely better. Simply put, there is not enough data for a definitive choice, and the poll is incorrect. But! The idea itself and the initiative to conduct such polls and discussions are sound, and I respect the author for starting this.

P.S. Perhaps we can dedicate further discussion to defining these very parameters and their relative importance?
For example, if, after assessing the map (maps), I see that I will have many battles with slow neutral creatures ahead, where I will usually attack first, and without retaliation, I will choose attack. If I see a lot of Hive, Consulates, and utopias, I will prefer armor. Something like that...
