Default Floorboards - nail or screw?

Is there any reason why my old floorboards are nailed, other than that it's
quicker?

As I will want to take my floorboards up in a year or so
I think I should screw the ones I'm repairing and replacing,
but what kind of screw?

As I plan on pulling them up again in a year
maybe a shorter narrower screw
so next year's can be secure?

There are hundreds of different screws on offer...

thanks
