Mecanum Wheel Control

So I've gotten into a debate with my co-captain about how to control a Mecanum Drive system.

He thinks 1 joystick for driving around will be very intuitive, and therefore better.

I think, while not quite as intuitive, 2 joysticks will end up being better because there's more option for control and with practice, just as easy to control.

Neither of us have built mecanum drive before and I was wondering if any teams who have could lend some insight from their experience.

Thanks in advance.
