I'd vote for "read only = no" - as the man page seems to indicate that "read only" is the "preferred" synonym - by not describing it as a synonym. I'd like to see the complete removal of the synonyms from smb.conf. With "writable" as a synonym for "writeable" which is an inverted synonym for "read only" I've seen shares in smb.conf's that use both instead of one or the other. And even examples/smb.conf.default uses a mixture of "read only" and "writable" (although not in the same share). I think the plethora of synonyms for smb.conf cause confusion and assist in the creation of mistakes. Time to clean up this mess, decide on the preferred synonyms and deprecate the others, with testparm warnings, followed by removal a couple of releases later.
