I dont know man, I've grown in all those different media, coco, peat and rockwool and really I find Peat about on par with coco in terms of overall water usage as long as appropriately sized pots are used with dialed in feeding and minimal runoff.
Compared to rockwool I'd say both use (Im guessing) 30% or so more water. So if conservation of water is the goal, rockwool is the solution. But if conservation of Bogs and non renewable resources is the goal, coco is a good way to go.
If plant flavour and ease of growth is the goal despite the environmental impact, Peat is a great choice.
