To initialize the elements of the description of my tag, should I use something like:
def Init(self,node) :
data = node.GetDataInstance()
data.SetData(SD_ON,True)
or something like:
[COLOR=blue]
def Init(self, node) :
self.InitAttr(host=node, type=bool, desc=[SD_ON])
node[SD_ON] = True
What is the difference?

You only need self.InitAttr() for initializing GUI elements,
then setting the values to the GUI's.
Regular values you set directly using your IDs.
Such as:
def Init(self, pconnector) :
pconnector[DIRTYSUM] = c4d.BaseContainer()
# Source Settings
pconnector[c4d.PC_SHIDE] = True
pconnector[c4d.PC_MODE_ALL] = 0
pconnector[c4d.PC_AMOUNT] = 1.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_CONNECT] = 0
# Point Settings
pconnector[c4d.PC_STARTPOINT] = 1.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_ENDPOINT] = 100.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_OFFSETPOINT] = 0.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_DIRECTION] = 0
pconnector[c4d.PC_POINTSTEP] = 1.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_CONNECTSTEP] = 1.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_MAXPOINTDIF] = 1000.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_RANDOM] = 0.0
# Spline Settings
pconnector[c4d.PC_MAKESPLINE] = True
pconnector[c4d.PC_SPLINE_MIN] = 0.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_SPLINE_MAX] = 1000.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_SEGMENT_START] = 0.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_SEGMENT_END] = 1.0
pconnector[c4d.PC_DISTANCE_GROW] = 0
pconnector[c4d.PC_DISTANCE_SENSE] = 0.8
pconnector[c4d.PC_SPLINE_SUB] = 0
#TP life
self.InitAttr(pconnector, c4d.SplineData, [c4d.PC_TPCURVE])
icurve = pconnector[c4d.PC_TPCURVE]
icurve.SetRange(0.0, 1.0, 0.01, 0.0, 1.0, 0.01)
icurve.InsertKnot(1,1,0)
icurve.InsertKnot(0,1,0)
pconnector[c4d.PC_TPCURVE] = icurve
# General
pconnector[c4d.PC_SPACE] = 0
pconnector[c4d.PC_CACHE] = False
pconnector[c4d.PC_INFO] = 'Ready'
#etc
return True

I have been initializing the values of the GUI elements of the description in the Init method, using:
def Init(self,node) :
data = node.GetDataInstance()
data.SetData(SD_ON,True)
data.SetData(SD_USE_CHILDREN,False)
data.SetData(SD_NO_INTERPOLATE,False)
data.SetData(SD_INSTANCES,False)
data.SetData(SD_DRAW_SPHERES,True)
return True
Is this incorrect?

It's incorrect as we are not recommended to use the basecontainer (.GetDataInstance()).
What I mean by GUI elements is things like the Spline GUI, it is just the
"background" that holds no values. It needs to get the values set as you can see
in my example before.
Your init should/could look:
def Init(self,node) :
node[c4d.SD_ON] = True
node[c4d.SD_USE_CHILDREN] = False
node[c4d.SD_NO_INTERPOLATE] = False
node[c4d.SD_INSTANCES] = False
node[c4d.SD_DRAW_SPHERES] = True
return True
..given the ID's are in your res/str/.h files
