its all about **perspective** and relativity, not to mention the theory v/s
reality. Follow it from the electron flow point of reference.  ;)

I agree that 1. is a candidate for being driven in antiphase. On the 
other hand 2., assuming it wont be destroyed by a reverse voltage, 
will actually run at half the voltage as only half the time will it 
have 5 Volts across it when driven as suggested.

So, You say 10 Volts peak-to-peak, and I'm saying 2.5 Volts average - 
depending on the module.

OK, I have real work to do here, sorry I brought up this whole thing. 
I'll leave it to you guys to fight out this semantic argument yourselves.
