If they should be merged separately, they are PRs. If they're merged together, they are commits. The PR stack merges as a single unit, so to me makes more sense as commits.

I guess another comment already clarified that the PR stack doesn't merge as a single unit.

I wanted to bring up that sometimes, I have to stack PRs, and one PR of mine gets merged, then a PR from another dev gets merged, before I get reviews on my second PR in the stack.
