Two techs enter, one tech leaves! Or not. I really can't agree with the premise that a winner between those two can be declared in absolute terms, and in any case they are not mutually exclusive. Felix makes an excellent point that Hiera can serve many of the same purposes that an ENC can do. When you throw in the possibility of providing a custom Hiera back end, I'm prepared to say that anything it is possible to do with an ENC, it is also possible to do with Hiera + manifest. Some things may be more *convenient* to do via the ENC interface, however, at least for some sites. As a special case, if you want to use an existing third-party ENC, such as Foreman's, then it would be silly to wrap it in an Hiera interface instead of using it directly.
