"Which drivetrain should we prototype in the off-season?" is a whole different question than "what are the advantages of each drivetrain?"
If all you're looking for is a simple answer to the former question, I'd recommend mecanum for a few reasons. One is that it can be mastered in a season. Two is that if all else fails, swap out regular wheels and you'll have a drive that you're familiar with. Three is that it will make a good demo bot all by itself, since most people aren't familiar with mecanum wheels.
Hope this helps.
