Default which dro option is best suited for a 3 in 1 machine?

I'm looking at a shumatech dro kit for my smithy 1220ltd. I'm a
complete amateur with my machine and can't decide if the milling
version or the lathe version is best for my use.

I'm leaning toward the mill version because I seem to use it more than
my lathe but some of the lathe options in the shumatech dro look
pretty nice.

I'm also considering getting both lathe and mill dro face plates and
just reprogramming the dro whenever I switch operations.

any thoughts or advice welcome.

Thanks
