It's not strictly true - depends on the rate. The only thing you can say for sure - uncompressed analysis on Athena is too expensive

They have the same rate. BigQuery and Athena are $5/TB scanned. Unless you store everything in raw JSON text, Athena will be cheaper even with most basic compression.
