I dunno, Chopin has a bigger nose
Liszt's pianoshredding can't ever be better than Chopin's piano pieces, however, Liszt's symphonic music is amazing and even if Chopin had lived longer, I don't think we would have gotten anything like Liszt's Dante Symphony. I still prefer Chopin though.
Chopping is the goat

Well chopin only wrote for one instrument so the answer is pretty clear:
Liszt.
Chopinomania wasn't a thing for a very good reason: He just supplied light background music for cafes.
