Scherzo2 vs Revolutionary Etude

Working on scherzo no2 just wondering which is harder Chopin’s Revolutionary or his scherzo no2. Length of piece, dynamics, phrasing, technicality, etc.

Why are you wondering that?   They are so different ... The etude has one musical concept and one technical concept.  The scherzo has about 5 or 6...   What's your preliminary take on their differences?

Overall I think the revolutionary is harder in the sense that the initial barrier you need to overcome is higher. Both pieces require high technical mastery to play really well.
