To be fair, this is a bit of an apples vs oranges situation. Terran takes a lot of micro, but most of it is very mechanical, like stutter-step or splitting vs banelings. It's stuff you need to practice a lot, and you need a lot of APM and accuracy in order to pull it off well, but you mostly just do your thing and don't need to react much.

Protoss micro, on the other hand, is purely reactive. Forcefields and Blinks don't take that much apm, they take accuracy and timing, and often great reflexes. They also depend totally on what the opponent does. Every fight needs its own good FF placement, there's no repetitive pattern to it, you just need to figure it out on the fly. This is why we see missed forcefields a lot more often than bad marine splits vs banelings, for instance.

Not sure which is harder, but they are very different.
