Is there any reason to pick Z Machine Version 4 over 5?

Yes, sfrotz works for me (on a quick go starting up Journey).

Also, one of the headline features in the recently-announced Gargoyle 2026.1 was “support (more or less) for Infocom’s graphical version 6 games”. (I haven’t tried it.)

Full version 6 support is by no means universal, but there are options.
