Thinking about using 5442 IVS to trigger BI instead of using BI zones... thoughts?

Currently, I'm using one zone for each of my cameras. Any motion that meets the criteria will trigger the camera and then CPAI will process and look for people or vehicles before alerting. By only using one zone, the cameras triggers frequently on sunny, windy days. Using CPAI prevents those false alerts, but my storage takes a pretty good hit on days like that. Would I be better off using the built-in IVS of the 5442 to trigger BI/CPAI? Would this eliminate the false triggers from clouds, shadows etc? I suppose I could do a better job setting up multiple motion zones for each Camera, I just didn't have very good luck with that before when I tried it.
