Sure, but I've seen even ring-shank nails pop. Stainless screws are the only

Not arguing here, but in my experience nails popping out is generally
due to under-engineering in the manners of: movement caused by too much
space between joists, and nails too short.
Maybe, but mine were 16" OC. The nails? For me, screws are easier in the long
run.
I know there are other causes, but I've seen nails pop due to those
causes.
Screws don't wreck the wood coming out, either.
