I read a lot of discussions on this topic, including this forum, and it seems that it is just a personal preference for people doing it one way or the other. I have not seen any data from both sides that would show how either method affects the engine in the long run.
The only thing that bugs me is; why are people that are advocating the early oil change (to get rid of metal shaving) focusing on engine oil only? Following their logic they should be replacing pretty much all the fluids in their cars very early, but they don't, or do they? (maybe other fluids are simply not mentioned?)
