I guess it just boils down to which system you feel most comfortable with. I have no problem writing up numerous spells-as-powers to flesh out a particular "style." I'm personally much less comfortable with the skill-based magic, and feel great trepidation at the thought of combing through the epic tome which is GURPS Magic to try and assemble even a single magical style. Based on others' comments on the forums, I'm not alone in these feelings. In short, it's a matter of experience, familiarity and preference.
