C-u is more general because after that whatever digit
can follow. It is much more useful to get used to and
get into the muscle memory.

C-2 is unergonomic, at least on my keyboard.

The C-2s and M-2s, etc., doesn't work in a console or
-nw Emacs instance without the workaround. And if you
do it, probably you want to use it for something
better than replicate the C-u functionality which is
readily available.
