For somebody who doesn't use that many - as in a hundred being a lifetime supply - the no-brainer would seem to be the "External" style because it can be used anywhere, not just with devices that automagically forward the ground from the shell of the connector their AC ground wire.
Does this make sense? Or am I missing something.
