WLED is awesome. I run it on all my LED's.
The advantage of running option 1 is that you have to "injection points" for your data signal. The advantage of that is if you lose a LED that interrupts the data signal the maximum it can take out is 1/2 your strips/stings. Mine is not run this way (I don't think reversing was an option back when I put mine up). Problems in the data signal early in the segment could potentially take down all of my LED's. I had this happen a couple of years ago. Of course it was at the highest point of my roofline...
