Which way is preferred is the way you want it.
The second option seems to be keep FN LN for authors, but make author sort also be FN LN. Some people prefer that, so the list sorts the way it looks. Of course, that means that the author David Weber would sort under 'D', but that seems acceptable.
To do this, set
Code:
author_sort_copy_method = 'copy'
but *do not* change how your authors are entered. Go to manage_authors (discussed above) and push the recalculate button. Voila -- all author_sort values will be set to be the same as the author.
