DrawingSeed vs DesignSeed - whats the difference?

$

All,

apologies if this is a massively noob question...

Whats the difference between the DrawingSeed and DesignSeed - other than one being 3D with a black background and the other being 2D with a grey background. They both seem to have a single modelspace with the same file settings.

Where im going with this is... is there a downside to pointing the DrawingSeed variable to look at the same model as the model design seed?

Secondly...

When using the Geographic Coordinate System (GCS), is there a way to ensure the same GCS is applied to the target model? I.e - I have a Design Model that I want to create extractions / dynamic views from... When I do this, it is going to use an external model as the seed for the new file, however, that seed file doesn't necessarily have the appropriate GCS attached (we have many sites, so multiple GCS modifiers, so not as simple as having just one possible seed).

So if I am creating a 3D model, with GCS-Zone4 (for example), I want the recipient extraction/DV model to have that same GCS applied automatically. Is there a way to do this, or every time I create a drawing model / extraction do I have to go into the output and manually apply the correct GCS?

Thanks in advance!
