A simple question, what is the best way to failover in RouterOS v7, recursive route or netwatch with script? Why?
A simple answer, it depends.

A complicated answer - you may prefer speed of failover to anything else, then scripting can be faster than even netwatch; you may be really bad with scripting so recursive routing allows much less space for a mistake but it takes low tens of seconds to detect the failure. You may or may not care of false positives; you currently cannot monitor multiple canary addresses using a single netwatch instance so you are back at scripting if you want more than one canary.
