I do this. It is the most functional IMO. It definitely makes your track drops look way less badass, but it makes the most sense if you actually care about handlebar ergonomics. I use the hoods on big, out of saddle climbs and to skid (which is usually just for fun, because I have a brake). It's also just nice to have that extra aero-style hand position on the hoods. People here will say it's ugly, but if you want to keep your drops (which I actually use A LOT too), rock a brake, and have a bull horn-esque feature to your bars, it's the way to go.
