Some parts are more easyly done in sheetmetal than any other way (see attached picture). Also if you need to add other sheetmetal features, besides the form, there is no alternative. Doing parts the "sheetmetal way", like the added part, is also closer to the real life situation : cut - then bend.
The way to get the flat pattern is to create a FamTab with the form feature excluded.
