Different tools for the same job. One is explicitly integer to string conversion the other is sting formatting.

You can technically use the latter, but some prefer a function which explicitly does one thing and one thing only.

More accurately, some prefer a function that is statically dispatched and does not talk to std::fmt::Formatter.
