Better sensor: ENTP or INTP

ENTP's (Ne Ti Fe Si) Are better sensors then INTP's (Ti Ne Si Fe).
Agree, Disagree?

I thought this was interesting, because if so it really show's something about the functional stack. The inferior function being more developed as inferior function, rather then tertiary. And it tells us something about Intuition and Sensing itself.

Or is this what I'm asking rather dumb?

Clarification: With better sensor I mean, better in objective sensing. Se, The notice of how things will be perceived by others. (Perceived by others is Ni? So actually Se-Ni... Well well, No misery why functions are always Binded, They are nothing without the other :P)

Supposedly ENTPs are truer perceivers because their dominant function is a perceiving one (so they have the P and dom-perceiving function thing going on). In addition, as Ne is more attuned to the environment than Ti, an ENTP would theoretically be more naturally enmeshed with the environment than an INTP. The former (ENTP) apparently screens information less, as the first judging function for an ENTP (Ti) is somewhat buried next to Ne's clout. This setup, clearly, has pros and cons.

Overall, an ENTP is going to make fewer judgements about the environment before assimilating information; that doesn't mean the judgements or information is better with an ENTP; rather, as extraverts, ENTPs are less prone to reshaping information before it comes in. Functions like Ti and Si buffer the object/environment before it reaches the subject/person, so INTPs are more selective and discriminating in some ways.

I would disagree. ENTPs may appear to be better sensors, but that's because it's so unexpected when it happens that it scares us shitless. Overexcitability.

I'm guessing a lot of people mistake some aspects of Ne for sensing ability? I think this is based on an ENTP's hoovering up quantity of stimuli as opposed to actual better use of sensing.

^This, if you're limiting your question to Se, well NeTi is both Extraverted and dominant perceiving; TiNe is Introverted and dominant judging, far removed from Extraverted sensory perception. Also considering Ne/Se are both Extraverted perception, some of those qualities of Se can be found in Ne.

Which cognitive setup is more effective is a different question though. Ti could systematize and implement Si, being dominant judging; a useful quality a slacker NeTi idealist would lack.

I think this question is already well answered. But I think of it this way. Se is different from Si. Se is more Pe than it is Sx. Ne is a Pe function. Both Ne and Se are Pe functions. Hence NeTi's are "more Se" than TiNe's.
