whereas both methodes give the exact same result in restoring trunk to
the desired state, there is a difference in what you will see in the
log afterwards.

After a reverse merge you still see the commit messages of the
reverted revisions.

Deleting trunk and reinstating it from the tag (or the related trunk
revision) won't show those messages, and only tell that trunk was
replaced. The history of the thrown-away revisions is still accessable
though (you will need to use the peg revision syntax to get there).
