This question somehow extends the question "Package option vs setup command".

I'm currently writing a class dedicated to students reports for both academic projects and internships. This class provides a reportsetup command that lets the user setting things up via keys/values.

For example, one thing that can be set up is the company's name of the internship. It appears that this could be done both:

• via a command companyname{⟨name⟩},


• via an option reportsetup{companyname = ⟨name⟩},

and this, whether the class considers the company's name mandatory or not: both commands and options may be mandatory or optional.

This is just an example but potentially applies to all commands all classes (or packages) could provide.

What would be the best between these two practices?
