Half or full sponsorship makes the choice simpler imo. Else, you will
need to let people know what cost each option incurs.

Nitpick: What if I am (only) applying for travel sponsorship?

Nitpick: "absolutely unable to attend" implies not being able to pay
for it at all; I feel an option like "while I could in theory pay for
this, the financial sacrifices can not be justified at the moment" in
between the two above. Or maybe rephrase the above two a bit.
