I haven't put much thought into it, but I personally find it more comfortable to run it on my belt.

Pros for belt:
- Lower on your body, so if you have it on your back side (like I do), you don't have to "chicken wing" your arm up your back to drop a mag in.
- Keeps space open on your carrier. Either keeping the front of your carrier clear to hold more mags, the sides of your carrier clear for tossing your primary to your reaction side when you transition to side arm, or keeping your back clear for a hydro pack, etc.

Pros for plate carrier:
- If it's high enough up, it won't swing around or bang your leg with every step.
- Might be positioned closer to your fresh mags, so there's less movement between dumping a mag, and pulling a new one.
