What's better between Torque and cadence sensor

[Henry]

Many ebike enthusiasts often get torn on whether to go for the cadence sensors, which are quite affordable and also pretty easy to use for beginners or switch to torque sensors, which in my opinion, feels natural and make riding easy for me.

Do you think beginners should always focus on cadence sensors and move to torque level when they are more experienced, or should they always go all in for the torque sensors experience?

I'd choose a torque sensor because it feels more natural. The motor matches how hard you're pedaling instead of simply detecting pedal movement. Cadence sensors are fine for casual rides, but torque sensors make riding smoother, and enjoyable.
