Purtroppo la scelta non e' facile, dipende da dove prevedi di usarlo.

come contributo ti riporto questo trafiletto tratto dal doc.
ISO19128 (WMS).

>NOTE The use of geographic CRSs with axis order of longitude before latitude differs from historical convention.
>Users in the international aviation and marine sectors may expect latitude to be before longitude, and a different
>coordinate display may have safety implications, especially in an emergency response situation. Although this
>International Standard does not specify human user interfaces, developers of user interfaces for WMSs are cautioned that
>all references to latitude and longitude, for example user input of bounding box or readout of cursor coordinates, should
>show latitude before longitude.
