Really is the better solution, however the small disadvantage is that the modern road front derailleur may not cope well when you go smaller than says, 46/30 and that is even pretty optimistic as my front derailleur performance is a little lacklustre (abet still work) compare to the 50/34 it was originally optimised for.
