Its all about what you want CBAC to do for you. CXBAC is there to prevent access from outside to your network, so from inside to outside so keep as loose a possible, hence standard access lists.
For inbound access, then if you want CBAC to look at it, the inspection must be more granular. For the purposes of CBAC you trust whats going out so access can be a vague as you want, but inbound you do not trust at all, BUT it just might be valid, but you wnat to inspect and know as much about the inbound tarffic as possible before you make a decision on letting it in.
