Would that make them Tuckobolds?
As always, I'm here to complicate things!
First: can you gain the rewards of a job well done after going the secret way?
Second: is there any special (super ~, or just plain ~) item(s) that you miss by going either the secret way or the front way?
Third: can you re-enter the dungeon reasonably?
Fourth: can you (semi-reasonably) go both ways?
Fifth: will you please not hate us?
If the first three are true, I vote go the secret way, collect the rewards up front and get what's inside (clearing it out).
If the first is not true, but the second two are, I vote going out the front way, but then returning to clear out the back.
If the second is irrelevant, but the first and third are true, then I vote secret way, and re-entering only if you want XP/revenge.
If the third isn't true, but the first two are, then I vote going (almost) all the way out of the secret way, then stopping, and going back out the front, if this is possible (basically to but not beyond the "point of no return", then turning around)
If the second and third are not true, but the first is, then the secret way.
In short: I lean towards the secret way, excepting there is a valuable/viable reason to go out the front.
