French press vs pour over, my 3 week experiment ended in a draw

I kept flip flopping between my old French press and the pour over kit my sister gave me for Christmas. So last month I ran a real test. Same beans, same grind size (medium), same water temp around 200 degrees. French press gave me that thick, oily cup with zero effort. Pour over took an extra 4 minutes but the flavor was brighter, almost tea like. After 21 days I honestly couldn't pick a winner, so now I use the French press on weekdays and pour over on Sundays. Has anyone else just given up and kept both?
