I play both.
I mainly play one pocket and learn my opponents strengths and weaknesses which helps when playing safeties.

There you go- here is all the answer that you need. As Measureman states : you play the opponent in terms of your table decisions that could be affected by either their strengths or weaknesses - it helps gauge your risk/reward decisons.
Otherwise, your play is really against yourself- your mental self- can your mind allow your body to do what you believe to be the best course of action followed by your planned execution.

I do both as well. I play the table when in offensive mode. I play my opponent when determining strategy for moves.
