I would say that it’s fairly rare that RSA and AES are really competitors for the same category of uses, as they’re asymmetric and symmetric algorithms respectively.

I would suggest that anyone who doesn’t know about the differences between these things just not use cryptography directly and instead use things like libsodium which has sane defaults and a hard to misuse api.

If you don’t know cryptography fairly well, it’s a massive minefield.
