I think the pi pico is a different category of dev-board.
If you are a beginner, it won’t make a big difference, so you might as well go for the 200MHz pi pico instead of the arduino.
If you are more advanced and prefer C, setting up timers etc. will be a lot simpler with the arduino atmega-MCUs. The rp2040 of the pi has many more features and the configuration will be accordingly complex.
I haven’t looked into the pi yet, but I’m just gonna assume it also uses more power.
It’s a lot more capable and complex.

Both valid, but slightly different categories.
