There's only one person who can decide which is harder, and that would be the person who is the proven best at both, so they could look back and say, "you know what, 'x' is much harder than 'y'." That person does not exist so why argue about it

Good points. I think you wouldn't have to be the very very best. If you were good enough to turn pro at either, you've got a lot of credibility to do a comparison.

Somehow Teach keeps popping into my head...
