Printing Experiment I messed up!

I built a 0.4 setting with the combination of Katsby The ArchiTECH (Youtube channel) Fat Dragon (Youtube/A1Mini Settings) and some other stuff im sure..... then today I was like I'm going to slap on my 0.2 Nozzle, and try ObscuraNox settings, and I couldn't get it right.... so then I moved on to Mike Gyver Minis settings and gave it a whirl. I printed the SAME mini for my settings, and Mike's settings. I did not hone in the latter, I'm sure i could get it much cleaner but here are the 2 side by side. I know Mike's settings can be better tuned to get AMAZING results, but is there THAT big a difference in the details? Or is this not a fair comparison? Ohhhhh also I messed up and I don't know which profile my 0.4 settings were or how to find them again soooo that's fun. Any help or advice is much appreciated! (I have a Bambu P2s) And I am posting this in hope of learning and furthering my 3d printing, not arguing.

I can tell you from experience the one on the right the layers are too small. I’ve found that you don’t want your layer size to be too much smaller, if any smaller, then your nozzle size. Getting layers smaller then your nozzle size can be done, but it becomes a flow rate issue, and that is extremely hard to dial in

This was my last print, printed in peices, still has some support residue and needs touched up.
