heh, damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Watching lockpicklawyer to see what is possible and what ideal tools are used, really helps to understand just how vulnerable we are. See the vid of cutting the cable tie with a tin snip.but to give you an answer to work with, take both. The cable ties anyway don't take up space and can be put anywhere.
Also might be great for controlling a bleed, or holding some bits of limb together. Of course I mean for someone else you come across that might need help.
Or maybe to tie up the thief in case you catch one.
Don’t lock your bike??
