There is an important difference. The built in aux contacts follow the *actual* state of the contactor. If a contactor happens to weld on and you are using a relay to "follow" the contactor state the system will happily turn the only contactor on.
EV200 with aux contacts or a remote relay?

The reversing contactors I've seen have two single pole double throw high current contacts.

This is something I'll need to sort out in the near future too. If you use single contactors I believe you'll need a set of three. Here's a diagram for use with the monoblock Albright-type contactor shown above
