Well, the reason I was thinking this way is if I bring the hot to the switch first, then through the lights I have to run a lot more wire. Which means drilling through twice as many joists....But if that is the proper way to do it, I will.
There might be another circuit I can grab a hot from near the switch. I'll see what is on it. For now though, I've starting taking apart the kitchen and wow, whoever did this was a moron. Lots of shoddy work to clean up.
