Yes, the latter can do more. Just as `integerp' can do
more than `natnump'. Just as `eval-buffer' can do more
than `eval-region'.

Yes, that's an important difference. In addition,
_only commands are accepted_ as input, regardless
of whether you use completion.
(At least that's what my implementation does.
`completing-read' uses `commandp' as PREDICATE and
`t' as REQUIRE-MATCH.)
