So it all depends on what you need. If you need FIND_LIBRARY to find
compilable libaries ok, I don't, hence I would prefer something simpler and
faster.
On my projects I consider it a user error if the library is found by file
location and doesn't work on compilation (plus I can try-compile if that is
needed, currently CMake allows you to do both, making FIND_LIBRARY
try-compile always would remove one of the options).
