In vocal recording, it is purely convenience. I've gotten in the habit of placing the mic body up and grille down because many of the people I'm working with use a music stand for the words and the body would block the stand or cast shadows. Some vocalistas need to see the mic the other way around. It's pretty much a comfort thing.

Some people have the grill point to the neck and tilt the mic. What's the difference?

Erm, uh, might need a little more detail to answer this one.
I'll take a stab and tell you that I start my mono mic placement with one mic placed at the joint between the neck and body. I'll tilt it towards the sound hole for more boom and toward the neck for more rasp and squeekies.
