V1 Policies - BLT

Puzzle me this....

On the Fleet Admin side of the BLT there is a variety of V1 calculation options available. These options control how the program goes about calculating V1 and the effect this has on the allowable take off weight. Straightforward enough. However, what is the advantage/disadvantage of any given setting? We, as an operator, do not carry large weights, as opposed say to Ryanair. Therefore our policy need not be one that generates a high gross weight for t/off. My BLT user manual points the way to an IATA document - 'Standard Computerized Airplane Performance Interface Specs-Take Off' for more info on V1 options allowed. So are there any performance gurus out there who can help out?
