Plain bonds.

When Covid hit, and bond yields were super-low, bonds did not protect client portfolios because yields were starting to rise. If inflation is going to be more persistent, and bond yields are going to be where they are now or slightly higher for the next 6-12 months, then bonds are not a safe part of your portfolio from a total return perspective. 

If you're 70 years old and in 100% equities, then yes you probably should have some fixed income in your portfolio. Look at an XCB or something like that that's shorter term. There are some ETFs that are income-oriented for older folks.

Bonds - Coupon
Coupon bonds vs. regular bonds with a yield?

If you buy a 5-year coupon, which is the stripped piece, you get paid at the end. You buy it at $60 and it matures at $100. More volatile than regular bonds. You'll usually pay the trading desk a higher spread.

Regular bonds are more liquid.

They're very much the same thing. Do NOT buy a coupon bond in a taxable account. Reason: you're supposed to impute the amount of interest you're getting every year and report it on your taxes, which is a painful process. So if you're going to buy a strip or a coupon, only buy it in a registered or non-taxable account.
