When you are starting new players in PB, do you generally give them pre-gen characters that you know will have the skills for the scenario, or do you spend session zero rolling up characters?

There is some knowledge that comes out of the "why" behind some character attributes and the ideas around DR ratings and skill rolls. However this is also a time that can kinda drag on a bit if you are the kind of person who wants to just dig into the story.

What's everyone's experience? This is common for all TTRPGs, but I didn't know the success rate one way or another for getting new PB players engaged.
