DIY Floor Sanding : Stain vs Natural

Hi, I'm in the process of sanding my old pine floorboards. ( a decision I regret already :) ) The two options I am considering are a walnut stain - using Osmo Poly Oil Tints or just the Osmo natural satin oil. They seem to come highly recommended. While I probably prefer the walnut colour I've read online that a wood stain is much more likely to show up scratches, imperfections etc. caused by sanding (particularly by an amateur!) where as a natural varnish or oil is a bit more forgiving. Just wondering if anyone has any experience or advice?
