Well, there are reasons to do both. What problem are you trying to solve?
In general, broadcast is more processor- and memory-intensive but 
easier to configure and maintain.  Neighbor demands more 
configuration but less resources.
It would be interesting to ask a lab proctor, if the instructions 
don't give a problem statement, "I have two ways to do this. One 
optimizes for resource use and one optimizes for maintainability. Do 
you have a preference?"
