Yes

Yes, there certainly is advantage to keeping positive-going audio waveforms positive all the way through to playback. Flipping the signal "upside-down" causes a general smearing of the imaging, transients and depth of the recording. This effect depends on the accuracy of the monitor speakers of course.

As a general rule, we run polarity checks of our recording systems from microphone on out to make sure nothing gets flipped along the way. We also have the opportunity to see the audio waveforms throughout the editing, mastering and authoring of projects.
