I'm just trying to save you money (if you want to save money). If you hail a waiting taxi at the upstairs arrival level 2nd curb, and the driver wants 500b to your destination in Bangkok, then for sure a meter will be less (and probably by about 200b).
It depends on where you want to go. On the airport metered taxis I have paid 400+ (with the baggage allowance and Highway Toll) to some parts of BKK especially the othrside of BKK. From BKK to the Suvarnabhumi with the highway toll is normally a fixed rate of 500. I take it as the cars are cleaner and better than just a taxi.
