"Preferable" only if you want unpredictable changes in behavior, as has been discussed elsewhere in this thread.  One should only change the SDK being used after careful deliberation and a plan to cope with the changed behavior (possibly while also coping with the old behavior if you continue to deploy to older OS versions).  Automatic switching, as embodied in those options, is an awful idea, in my opinion.
