Like on a Rockwell scale? kind of hard (pun intended) to measure.
Kendo & Iaido are first martial arts and started both at same time so cannot measure to other martial arts.

Most challenging aspect is self acknowledgment that no matter how much you put into it you are still doing everything wrong
and if a Sempai points out a correction, you are very obviously wrong.
Makes one wish for but cringe at the thought of being video taped so you can see what you do as others see you.

Physically - not harder, just different from other activities.
