How is the modern variant the one that we're supposed to use? This variant is just that, a commonly used variant, not the official logo. The official logo is used on all official documents, agent ID badges and other official items; the modern variant is the one most commonly seen, but is not the official logo. I personally believe that the modern variant should only be used to represent S.H.I.E.L.D. as Coulson's Faction in contrast to the Gonzales Faction logo.

Specifying which faction took part in which conflict is important as they were not always both present. It clearly defines which faction took part in which event.
