Tearsheet design: VerticalPosition

[RichKummer]

CreateTearsheet retains a prop for verticalPosition that determines how far from the top of the window the CreateTearsheet should begin. This was deprecated for tearsheet and was intended to be deprecated for Create. Verify if this is still valid – should we deprecate in Create and use same default spacing? Or, allow both tearsheet and CreateTearsheet to use this prop again?

• Check Telemetry data for prop usage in CreateTearsheet
• Research if this prop is necessary (can teams override if needed?)
• Should CreateTearsheet and Tearsheet both have the verticalPosition prop, with the same default value?
• Should we fully deprecate the verticalPosition prop in CreateTearsheet?
• Discuss with development
