Default Kiln dry vs. Air Dry Lumber

Sure, Air dried wood is better, it has had time to slowly condition as it
dries (slowly). The wood fibers haven't been shocked, resulting in
chucking, cracks, etc. There is absolutely nothing to recommend kiln dried
wood except the production schedule of the mill and the amount of storage
they have. Once the moisture content has reached optimum levels you're good
to go.

Can anyone shed light on the pros and cons of either?
