How do Neovim and Emacs startup times compare when using Emacs 28’s native compilation of elisp?

Obviously hard to compare because they don’t run the same packages but would still be interesting to see ballpark figures of setups with roughly equivalent functionality.

Are these startup times even significant enough to actually be noticeable anyway?

If people are bothered by Emacs startup times they usually just use Emacs Daemon. I let systemd start it for me at boop, for example.

Not favourably to Emacs.
