Nobody cares where you log anything as long as it's correct on your resume, application, or 8710. I've not heard of any employers who ask for TT in planes and sims. They only want to know how much you've flown the plane. Same with the FAA. They separate the sim/FTD and flight time on the 8710.
I only log flight time as TT because it's easier to fill out the paperwork that way, but if you want to log everything in the TT column and subtract it out later, that's fine too. Same goes for the dual received column.
I also keep track of dual given in sims, but in a separate logbook. I don't think anybody will ever ask or care about it but it makes me feel like those hrs are not going to waste. If you log it in your primary logbook, you run into the same issue. It will have to be subtracted later when somebody wants to know how much dual given in airplanes you have.
