If that's the case, then 1036 wins imho, by simple thing of not 
doing any parsing of format string.

Note, that other use cases might not require building of a format 
string.

What about logging functionality?

In case of 1036, a log function could just dump all text into 
sink directly, for 1027 it would still need to parse format 
string to find where to inject arguments. This use case makes 
1036 more favourable than 1027, by your own criterias for a good 
mechanism.
