I'm having a very hard time making up my mind as well. I agree with everything you said. Both make sense and both are appealing. So I guess it's down to personal preference?
So to me personally, I think that deep down I do prefer dom!Jeeves, sub!Bertie. I always end up writing them that way, I always end up thinking of them that way. Don't get me wrong, I like me some nice sexy dominant Bertie and some good yummy submissive Jeeves, but I naturally seem to lean towards dom!Jeeves and sub!Bertie.
I just love the reversal of roles: who's the master, really? There's something incredibly sexy about Jeeves being dominant and still calling Bertie "sir". Also to me Bertie is a big ol' twink ;) And I think that submission (more than masochism) is something Bertie excels at. On the other hand, Jeeves is always in control of everything, and the care and attention a dominant needs to show his submissive would come naturally to him.
Like you said, there's no final official answer. And - again, like you said - thank goodness we don't actually have to choose! We can enjoy/read/think about both!
((oh, and who's to say they don't regularly switch?))
