Both will result in proper playback but I don't know if there is any difference at all.

Either works. The difference is x264 is frame rate aware. If you use CRF encoding, it will adjust the quantizers according the the framerate with tcfile-in. Higher quantizers for higher fps sections. If you encoded it as CRF as CFR, it will be slightly different allocation
