Default Cubes or boost?

I'm hoping that someone who has experience on both sides of this fence can help.

Let's assume for argument's sake that any engine can be stroked (not bored), so this will include the Boss motors and that you could also buy an off the shelf blower for it to produce similar power levels on a reasonable boost level with stock engine internals. Would you be better off stroking or blowing it and why?

I'm not really interested in the maximum power output as such but more in the day to day driveability of the end result.

If it helps, assume it's a modern car backed by an auto. Any type of engine is ok for this argument but preferably a V8. Blower would be a twin screw intercooled.
