In case one want to supply the information only for one type of splitting.
Otherwise, with one line for both you'll have to use a special way to say
nothing, like

manual '' mono-manual.html

So I think telling explicitely if the manual is split or mono is better.
It also can be extended more easily, for example texi2html can also split
in 2 other ways (chapter and section), and though today the links are 
always done like if it was split at nodes, with redirection files, this
could be changed in the future more easily if new splitting modes can be
added.
