Blue ArchivevsMicrosoft Minesweeper
Neither is meaningfully harder - they pose close to the same test. The widest gap is execution, and it is a single point.

Axis by axis
Execution1 vs 2
Microsoft Minesweeper leans a little harder on execution, though the gap is small.
Blue Archive
Timing EX skills is the only manual input
Microsoft Minesweeper
Click speed only matters for leaderboard times
Reads1 vs 0
Blue Archive leans a little harder on reads, though the gap is small.
Blue Archive
PvP defence teams are static setups, not live minds
Microsoft Minesweeper
No opponent, just a static hidden board
Variance6 vs 6
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Blue Archive
Gacha pulls and skill-cost rolls shape every roster and run
Microsoft Minesweeper
Mine placement is hidden information forcing occasional pure guesses
Optimization7 vs 7
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.

Team composition, terrain affinity and raid strategy are deeply solvable
Microsoft Minesweeper
Constraint deduction from number clues is fully solvable logic
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
