I agree that this is confusing. dhclient is the older tool, while
dhcpcd has been created by a NetBSD developer, is newer and smaller. I
have run into situations (on Google Compute Engine for instance) where
dhclient was unable to interpret some of the more modern DHCP
features.

I recommend using dhcpcd :)
