It depends on how your manuals and/or performance calculator are set up...

Many performance guides cite total runway used for stopping, including air distance (from runway threshold to landing point). Some of the backup charts, especially for non-normal configurations, MAY show actual stopping distance from the landing point only. The latter situation is where the Length Beyond GlideSlope is useful.
