Although they are minor, they are semantic differences not stylistic. UNINIT is better on technical grounds; among other things, it causes GCC to generate more-efficient code in production builds.
As the main objection to UNINIT appears to be stylistic, perhaps we can ameliorate that somehow. We could change its name to ATTRIBUTE_UNINIT, say, so that declarations look like this:
Lisp_Object dest ATTRIBUTE_UNINIT; Would that be better?
