IMO, you are misunderstanding Buddhism though. To actually understand these kinds of statements requires a gestalt shift in thinking.
for example see reification:
Gestalt psychology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Buddhism is not as interested in stating what appears obvious as much as forcing these shifts in perception. Which is "better" is a matter of opinion, as two opposite views may be functionally equivalent
