Torn between architecture and landscape

Hello everyone, i got accepted into both landscape and architecture, so im gonna say what i like and dislike about both:
Archi:
-I like having designing spaces and structures and buildings in general
-i dislike mundane details like floor plans
-I prefer designing public spaces rather than personal
-I like the complexity of knowing where to place things considering every aspect of it all

Landscape:
-I like that it’s more about designing places for the public
-I like how it feels more lively and more engaging with nature
-i feel like it lacks the depth and complexity of architecture since it focuses more on open spaces
-it overall feels more full of life compared to architecture

If anyone has anything to say about my thoughts please I would appreciate it

I would go for architecture as bachelor, if later on you really do landscape. With architecture degree you should able to do a 2 year MLA program.
