To reply to the subject line,

I would choose whichever system gave the most bits at with the least problems with digital into digital co-channel and adjacent channel interference.

This chooses ATSC over DVB-T.

The reason is simple. A really bad day is one in which
tropo ducting is strong. This fairly frequently causes, where I live, bad adjacent channel interference and more rarely co-channel. The 3 dB interference advantage
of ATSC can really help.
