Exactly this.

That's impressive that you found an hvac tech that is that lazy.
It is actually illegal for the tech to put that much in a system without first finding and repairing the leak.Took about 2lbs of freon and seems to be good now. Unit is almost 10 years old, should I be looking at replacing it or spend $$$ in terms of isolating a leak? Thank you
I'll vote for the evaporator coils or that area. 10 year old unit I think would be most likely as if it was outside you would see oil on the piping or condenser coils....
Very hypothetical question, probability of having a leak on the outdoor unit vs indoor coils, which one is high? Thank you.
You have to remember, for these AC companies HATE repairing things, sell you a whole new system and big money for them. So they will always skew the conversation towards replacing or discourage repair unless they are honest.
