Using discover search plugins with season packs

The documentation on this option is not entirely clear to me:

This option can be used if you want to accept season packs in addition to (or instead) of episodes.

That's fantastic because I want my existing discover task with search plugin to find/accept season packs in addition to episodes.

But this is the part I do not understand:

Developer notes:
If you’re creating/modifying an input plugin, and would like it to emit search string that’ll math season pack format, add season_pack_lookup = True to the entry. That way the estoimator used by discover plugin know to lookup that entity as a season and not an episode.

If you’re creating/modifying a search plugin, series parser adds season_pack = True to entries that were parsed to be a season pack, so you could search for that in case the relvant search site has different functionality for season packs.

Lost me there. To make sure Flexget is allowed to search and accept season packs in addition to single episodes, what should I use?
season_packs: yes or
season_pack_lookup = true or
season_pack = true ?

Or should I duplicate my Discovery/search task, with one of these options?

This is the series template (1) and discover search task (1) from my config.yml (note: the template is also being used for my RSS task downloading episodes):
