Compact gearing..yea or nay

SEEKING ALL GEARING OPINIONS... Is a 34 front with a 25 rear the same as a 36 front and a 27 rear? Seems as though the second gearing choice may give one more use of the smaller front ring and thus provide better transition to a 52 or 53 up front. The 50 is too small for anything over 32 mph.
