Growing up in the South it's fairly common to see that many people think that the fruit you won't eat from the hand, for whatever reason, are often better for certain recipes of desserts and preserves.

That's because it is. Different acid concentrations, cell walls strengths, etc lead to some apples being better suited for some things than others. Kind of like fillet vs strip, it's all the same meat, but very different, and cooks differently too.
