Final Fantasy I - Redux

I will definitely be considering using your alternative tileset, but that kind of cosmetic stuff will probably be left to last.

That is something you should directly consider now opposed to later as it directly affects your level design process. I should know, I made the tileset lol. What I mean is you cannot just apply my tileset patch and expect it to be peachy, you'll need to do some basic level design modifications to get it working as intended. If you apply it early on and work with the tileset then instead of later, you will not have to do any modifications later.

It is ultimately your choice however.
