I don't see how you could test a statement like that scientifically. Maybe you could argue, for most people? For certain people? People conceive of problems and solutions differently and I doubt it is particularly standarizable in terms of type systems.
My interpretation is that the conclusion, at the moment, is that we can't know for sure, scientifically, which one is "better".
That being said, I sill have to find the randomized, double blind test that proves a hammer is the right way to hit a nail.
