Kitchen Flooring Under Cabinets??

I am doing a kitchen rehab, and plan on using a Luxury Vinyl Plank. This one!

Should I run this under the cabinets, or put it in after the cabinets are installed? I tend to think that this should NOT go under the cabinetry, but my builder feels otherwise.

If the flooring has a shorter life expectancy than the cabinets, then it doesn't go under them.  Hardwood or tile can go under the cabinets because they will outlast the cabinets in most cases.  Vinyl, wood laminate, other cheap crap, just run them up to the cabinets and put the kickplate on, like others have suggested.
