First, whenever there's a "which is better" question, you should keep in mind that there's unlikely to be a single correct answer. There are different ways to measure "better", such as ease of maintenance or performance, and even if you choose one or the other, there are cases where one way of doing things might be better in one case, while another way might be better somewhere else. That said, if I had to pick one of those two choices without knowing anything else, I'd use the tags where they're needed in the document, because generally that would work better in the majority of cases. As to why CF doesn't like nested CFOUTPUTs except in specific cases, that's just the way the language was written.
