You could make the same argument from the other direction. People love say anything other than 100% compliance and acceptance as “anti-vaxxer”. Somewhere along the line, we as a society equated health with a medicine to stop whatever ails us instead of taking care of our bodies in a way that lets it protect itself.
Sure Covid targeted the elderly at no fault of their own; however, the other main target of Covid was the younger unhealthy population which in many cases was their fault due to the lifestyle they have lived (obesity, smoking, etc).
This whole time we have equated the solution to Covid as a vaccine; however, simpler solutions are also available in treatments and better general health. Very early on we knew the health factors that greatly increased the risk of getting Covid. If an obese/unhealthy person didn’t change their habits in the 1 YEAR we have had to do it then who is really to blame.

To simply answer the OPs question:
Vaccines usually offer more protection than natural immunity. There are some viruses where natural immunity is better, such as mumps and measles
The covid-19 vaccine at this time appears to offer stronger antibody response than natural infection, but they will need more time to conclusively state that
