Pilot phraseology at FISO Airfield

Hi,
I have always taught that when the FISO states "at your discretion" that you should give your intention,i.e. "landing/touch and go" or "Taking off" as appropriate.Cap 413 states that on being given this option that you should reply "roger " when on final with NO intention! The recently withdrawn, but excellent, Supplement 3 (General Aviation) to CAP413 gave intention.Having talked to a few FISOs recently there is obviously lots of confusion. Spatial awareness must be enhanced by giving intention, or am l missing something?
Thanks
