What is the difference with the following commands?

ip netns exec outside ip link add dev tun1 type gre local 10.0.0.1 \
    remote 10.0.0.2
ip netns exec outside ip link set tun1 netns custa

or

ip exec custa ip netns set outside 1234
ip exec custa ip link add tun1 link-netnsid 1234 type gre local 10.0.0.1 \
    remote 10.0.0.2
