Are there elite swimmers that have a high head position?

Or even some videos? I thought this used to be taught more vs. the head being straight down. Or is a high head position mutually exclusive from elite swimming?
I can't seem to get any comfort putting my head down so wondered if I could give up and emulate others with more this style.
What is the benefit in looking forward? The only thing which looks logical is that you get higher body position though you need a strong kick to avoid drag as it was mentioned. Any other benefits?
