There's nothing elite about using common standards, it's just a matter of being on the safe side.

I wouldn't say it is better, it is a different approach. You can't setup visibility tables with navmeshes AFAIK, with waypoints that is no problem. In a general waypoint file structure, you would include both systems, like:

[NAVMESH_INFO]
...
[/NAVMESH_INFO]

[WAYPOINT_INFO]
...
[WAYPOINT_INFO]
