FUE vs FUT comparison of results

My question is. Picture a hair transplant candidate, wavy dark hair on light olive skin. Needs about 3.000 grafts and is on 1mg of finasteride/day.
Two options : A FUE operation, let’s say all 3K grafts may be extracted from the safe zone. Or, a FUT operation instead. All other factors (healing time, discomfort, price, scar) excluded. Sole criterion is the final cosmetic result. Given that FUT extracted grafts are considered , generally, healthier , bustier and less damage prone, could you give an (enen rough) estimation, on how much better would the FUT cosmetic result be? (A percent % number would be helpful, like 15% better result from FUT , or something like that)
I have seen publications where patients had FUE on one side of their head and FUT on the other, and I respect the doctors who did this because they know how to do both competently. The reports indicated that there was no difference between the two. The issue you may be missing is that the hair thickness (fine, medium, or coarse) is more important a determinant of what you would look like than FUE vs FUT. Also, the need for 3000 grafts is very dependent upon hair thickness, as men with coarse hair often require a lesser number of grafts than a man with fine hair, and even with a change in the number of grafts, the man with the coarser hair will have more fullness than the man with fine hair.
