I'd think about cash flow, risk and flexibility rather than the perfect answer. If two options look equal, I'd favor the one that's easier to reverse.

My starting points: keep a month of expenses visible in a checking buffer, automate savings on payday, and avoid a plan that only works when life is perfect.

Run the numbers for a normal month and a bad month. If the plan only works in a normal month, it's probably too fragile.
