For use case `2` (a 'mutable' set of options), review Magento's article entitled ["EAV and extension attributes"](_site/guides/v2.4/extension-dev-guide/attributes.html), noting especially the attribute option entitled option. Also make certain to declare 'Magento\Eav\Model\Entity\Attribute\Source\Table' as the value for the 'source' attribute option. This ensures that Magento will store options in the appropriate database table.
