There is a third option for using screws. Use 0-80 screws and cut the threads in the plate using a tap. 0-80 screws are easy to find and relatively inexpensive. Not having to fiddle with nuts is also an advantage. Using screws in a chromatic is more involved because any screw protrusion on the back side of the plates interferes with the attachment of valves.
