The distinction between a variable and an
option should not be dramatized. `setq' works
for both as an option is a variable just
as much.
`set-variable' is interactive so you can use it
with M-x and TAB if you don't know/remember the
exact option name.
Setting options interactively all the time
should be avoided tho - better to look for
generalized configs that'll stick and be part
of your Emacs personality.
