Secure Old phone or Erase all Data?

[RTx348]

Appears there is software available online to restore a FRP status phone without knowing the google password.
My question:
Would then selecting (below shown) Option->number 2 more secure for disposing of an old Phone (not selling it) than selecting Option->number 3.
(or are both 2 & 3 methods still accessable with hacker software?)

Source of solutions: read at google.com/android/find/ that with old Phone ON, and also on Laptop login to it's google acct->Security-> scroll down to Devices.

/*Once you click find device at above link it will show a map*/
(The lost device gets a notification)
when you get a prompt, tap Enable lock & erase.

Select what you want to do:
1.Play sound: Rings your device at full volume for 5 minutes, even if it's set to
silent or vibrate. <-(for finding nearby device)
-
2.Secure device: Lock Device or Sign Out of your Google Acct.
To make your old phone not accessable without Password then
select Secure your Phone AND then afterwards change the google acct pswd.
-
3.Erase device: Erase all Content. After erase you can't locate it.
May require sign in. Afterwards it will still show in show all Devices
though but it's not findable anymore.
