It all depends doesn't it?
I know from experience that 170-200 hours a year in fast jets involves more preparation, briefs, take-offs, airborne decisions, approaches, circuits, landings, debriefs (and probably even flights!) than 800-900 hours in a 747-400. I also know which job demands more precision, has the greater adrenaline and fitness required, and tests/extends one's skills more. Now I'm not saying either is easy, and each has its own challenges which still demand professionalism but hours aren't just hours, even if airline recruiters think that way.
Still, if someone doesn't want even a little bit of maximum performance flying in their logbook, then it's not for them anyway. They'll never know or understand what they've missed.
