I would guess that you have seen the first episode of "The Boys"?
Anyway, option 1 is very clearly superior, even if incredibly boring, because it includes not becoming tired or hungry during the trip. You kinda would get to zone out for months at a time, like a super long scenic vacation.
Option 1 also isn't necessarily as bad as they make it seem. If you suddenly gained super speed and your perception of time altered over night then, yes, you're suddenly going be spending a lot more time in your own head relative to before and it's going to take some adjustment as best, a lot of therapy at worst. But if you're born like that, surely it'd just be normal for you and you wouldn't necessarily know anything different?
The other option that wasn't mentioned is that you can "turn on" your powers and the world feels like it goes into slow motion around you, and then you turn them off again afterwards and it's all back to normal.
Your second point is how most comic speedsters operate. They can raise and lower their reaction speed at will.
In fact the only speedster I know of that can't change reaction speed at will is Red Rush from Invincible. He's permanently stuck at high speed so to him a simple conversation feels like hours.
