Fist, \omit is always equivalent to setting the stencil to false (##f)
but the former is shorter and easier readable. So I would write:

\once \omit Staff.TimeSignature
\omit Staff.Clef

But now to your question: If you put the commands inside your music, the
first one will make the TimeSignature disappear *at this moment in time*
(because of \once) - so it does not make sense to put it in a layout
block, because there are no points in time there.

The second command makes the Clef disappear *from this moment on*. If
you have it in the beginning and want it for all staves at all times,
then it makes sense to put it in a \layout block.
