Unfortunately, I cannot answer your question; it is beyond the scope of my knowledge. I could speculate, but it wouldn't be worth much.
Read the wikipedia article about meprobamate and then about benzodiazepines. Once you have clicked on all the links on that page to read about everything (GABA-A receptors, limbic system, etc., etc.) that _those_ articles reference that you do not understand, then we can continue. ;-)
The only thing I'm virtually certain of is that you have established a false dichotomy and so I doubt it is possible to answer your question as asked. :(
