Frustrated with non-durable top lifts

Heel first absolutely. You can't truly glide and look natural any other way.

I would agree wholeheartedly, with one exception. I see that (female) ballroom dancers, especially Latin style, often have a very stylized way of entering/exiting the dance floor, wherein they actually step down toe first after lifting that foot rather high off the ground behind them, then kicking it out front to take a step. It looks pretty smooth and graceful when done correctly.

However, outside of that particular limited context, that sort of walk looks completely absurd. Furthermore, ballroom shoes aren't really very tall-heeled, in our world anyway. I can't imagine it would even be possible to walk toe first in 5 inchers, even if you wanted to.
