So, this was part of the LARGE refactoring of the serialization stuff / removing lib serializers for those that remember that mess (it spans about 30 patches or something like that).
The options were introduced to keep the output in various areas of wikibase exactly the same through the refactoring / removing of the lib serializers.
We said that if we wanted to change something then we would discuss it further down the line, and it looks like we may now be at that point.
tldr, the only reason the options exist was to maintain the output format exactly as it was before refactoring.
