Settle debate, better talent-outfielders or infielders

In terms of MLB. Outfielders because they have more ways they have to field the ball.
The other argument is infielders can outfield but outfielders can't infield and that 1st is an easy slugger position.

From my experience with baseball it is much easier to transition to the outfield than any infield position. Playing in the infield has very little margin for error at the highest levels.

Finding guys with the range to play the OF is not hard. Its far more difficult to find guys with powerful and deadly accurate arms who can play SS, 3B and C.
And all that said catcher is by far the hardest position to field.

Go with the defensive spectrum (leaving off catchers): SS, 2B, CF, 3B, LF, RF, 1B.

3B > 2B and CF

Disagree. 2B requires more range and the ability to turn double plays. 3b does require more arm strength, but that's about it. 3rd really isn't that much harder than 1st.

I would put RF before LF. RF needs to have a stronger arm for throws to third. It is harder to field because the majority of batters are right handed and balls hit to the opposite field tend to slice away from the fielder.
