Per Atomic, all of their regs breathe the same. If this is your first reg you probably will have bought another one by the time you get to the point of wanting the extra features of the M1. The B2 1st stage has a swivel, but the Z2/3 has enough LP ports that you should be able to find a hose routing that you like.
I would probably get the Z2 OR the Z3 and the jam nut in case you want to swap hoses.
I want to add that braided hoses are not the one stop shop solution that they are sometimes portrayed as. They sometimes have a mind of their own with taking weird sets that change their routing, some brands can be abrasive to skin and other gear, and it's just a minor annoyance but a good portion of mine are some weird wrench size instead of 9/16.
