Command Based vs Simple Robot

I was having this discussion with someone else on our programming team deciding on which direction we should head for our design for programming this year in java.

He would like to use the template based on SimpleRobot (From what I can tell this is the most editable option??) and I kinda wanted to try Command because of how for me personally it seems a lot more organized.

His argument was that he thought Command was redundant if we would only use 4 subsystems (Drive-train, shooter, elevator, intake) and it would make more sense to stay with his design path since he could change it in a much more freely.

My question is what are the pros and cons between using the two options (Which one might be more powerful)? From what I've searched simple is a more open option while command is much more rigid and structured.
