A screw-in base, so you can wind the stanchion out of its socket and lay the rail down. That matters for a boat that lives under a carport or goes in a garage. It also lets you snug the base up tight instead of relying on grub screws.
Do not treat a rail as a handhold you can throw your weight at. A stanchion transfers everything you put on the rail into its base fixings, and most failures happen at the deck, not the post. Bolt through with a backing plate and the rail becomes trustworthy.
Seal the joint so salt water cannot sit under the base. That trapped film is oxygen-starved, and 316 needs air on its surface to stay passive. Bed the base on marine sealant, seal the bolt holes, and hose the whole fitting off after a salt trip.
