I totally agree with you. But it makes way more sense to create a pattern in fl where all of your all instruments are playing at one time and then, with the project in "pattern" mode export the wavs seperatly. This method lets you loop each instrument and then edit in Pro Tools after you record vocals. By each wav being shorter you will be saving hard drive space. I also found this method helpful becuase you can take instruments in and out by the clip. And also after you record you might want to change your patterns around to make the hook or verses sound better. Last but not least this enables whoever is spitting over the beat to write any amount of bars and still bring the "hook insruments" back in whenever you want. If you export in song mode your stuck with your Fl arrangements.
This is what it really means to "track" a beat. It is done by 4,8, or even 16 bar loops.
I think you all should consider this method. 1!!!!!

Both ways are good, but second way is more flexible.
