When Dad, an electrician, had to do it he pulled the wire through the
conduit before installing it - goes through the bends and LBs a lot
easier that way. Using stranded wire involves junction boxes and
joints when transitioning from "protected by conduit" to "not
requiring protection" or "protected by existing structure"

You are quite correct in that, but it's not a big deal to hang the boxes and
tie in inside them. Using THHN offers many advantages over pulling NM
through conduit, and makes the transition matter of little real value.
