I'm sure I can find center filters that will work well enough for either. As long as the lens covers 11x14 sharply to the corners with wiggle room not much else matters to me in this focal length. Size and weight aren't concerns either since the camera is a Toyo 810G. Let's skip the 210mm SSXL due to cost.

Which lens would you choose and why?

EDIT: I hope to be making mural-sized prints several feet wide so sharpness is very important to me. I'll be using a Rodagon-G or G-Componon enlarging lens.

Either will work very well for your intended purposes. Make sure your process is down perfectly, as making murals isn't for the faint of heart, or light of wallet(well, assuming you want the best quality throughout the process)

Thank you. Yes, I know it isn't easy. In fact, I'm sure I'll have to pay a neighbor to help me handle the big paper. This is assuming, of course, I can ever make this happen at all.
