Please put me down for option 1.

Just a thought, what will happen if our struts have weakened with age? Will the boot just open very quickly and it'll be obvious? It's just that I expect to find mine are deficient in some way, much in keeping with the rest of the car
Name added
If your struts are that worn out that you have to hold the boot lid up, then they might not work in slowing the spring action down. If you can still feel some resistance when you lift the boot lid quickly then you should be ok.
You would soon know if your struts are totally shot as the boot will be pretty heavy
