More time and effort. Bottom one takes 30 minutes to mow every 2 weeks. Each and everyone of those plants need to be maintained, trimmed and kept with weekly so it doesn’t look like a disaster. So unless you have 1-2 free hours a day, no one will be actually able to do the top and maintain it so it doesn’t turn to garbage.
Personally I respect nature, but don’t like it to be near me. So I prefer to live in places without lawns, like apartments. If I found myself by some miracle in possession of a house with a lawn (in this economy???), I would seek to destroy the lawn and replace it with more house. House is much more useful than lawn. Until I had accomplished that goal, it would just be a useless mass and I wouldn’t waste any time on it except to keep the footpath clear.
The way white people are like “I want to be responsible for additional household chores so that I can have a useless biological dead zone that ‘looks nice’” is nonsense to me.
I love this, but I suspect that the average person will see the last one and think, “Perfect! An orderly lawn and less insects.”

You mean “so it doesn’t turn to nature”. You just think nature is garbage.
Ah, the lovely front lawn thicket.
