I'm making a work decision, and in my as I weigh the digits 0-9 as they pertain to this particular situation, I find:

In one case, this is true:

 1 < 7 < 4 < 2=3=5 < 0=6=9 < 8 

In another, similar case, this is true:

 1 < 7 < 4 < 3 < 2=5=6=9 < 0=8 

What specific choice am I making a decision about?

It is

when you try to write them in seven-segment display, you sort them by the number of strokes.

And also

when you try to write them in sixteen-segment display instead.

So I'm guessing

that you are trying to build a (light) device or a simple "digit boards" (like those birthday candles) where you want to make sure it's less energy consuming or lighter in weight.

  Well, that tells us, what the numbers are about. It does not answer the question what specific choice the OP has to make. For what choice does he need to sort the digits this way? Or is it simply rot13(Juvpu qvfcynl-glcr fubhyq v hfr sbe zl arj cebqhpg)?
