OK, the reason why we're choosing #1 over #2 is that there are two competing schools of thought:
Sino-Tibetan (Tibeto-Burman) branches is a compromise between these 2 POV's.

Existing template boxes:
Some more need to be made, especially for the big Sino-Tibetan groupings.

This template's purpose is to navigate between the primary branches of the Sino-Tibetan family. Navigation to individual languages within each branch is provided by dedicated navboxes like Template:Karenic languages or Template:Na-Qiangic languages. However, in October last year this template was expanded with the content of these individual navboxes and added to all individual language articles, of which there are about 700. This was not a good idea: the end result simply duplicates the content of the individual navboxes, and – with over 700 links spread across a dozen collapsed sub-navboxes – is clumsy to navigate, both to the languages and to the subgroups. I've now restored the earlier version. – Uanfala (talk) 13:33, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
