No it isn't. The 357 has a higher current capacity, which the OM's seem
to find beneficial in situation where mirror lock up might ensue if the
current is inadequate. The SR44, on the other hand, tends to have a
higher overall capacity so it might last marginally longer - unless you
need high current towards the end of it's life and you get MLU and throw
the batteries away in disgust ;-)
You are right in that either will do and is better than alkalines or
lithiums.
