If you have the payment_intent_id, I would personally prefer that. Payment intents capture more of the lifecycle of a charge (pending states, decline reasons, etc.) so I prefer having it all together as much as possible.

that makes sense. I know if you want to refund against a charge you need to refund against the latest charge created. if I were to do payment intents instead, could I just refund the payment intent and i wouldn't have to worry bout sorting the charges?

A refund on a payment intent will propagate down to refund the charges associated with that payment intent:
