I think trying to compare the usefulness of a table v a bandsaw is comparing an apple to an orange. And it all depends on what you want to make.
As to which should be a first buy (was that the original question :? ), I think the largest bandsaw you can afford + an SCMS is a pretty damn versatile combination - more versatile than a tablesaw alone. So what if the rip cut isn't as accurate on a bandsaw as a tablesaw? - that's what planes/planers are for. You'd still use one if you rip on a tablesaw.
That's what would suit me personally, each to their own of course depending on what is being made. I've often wanted to make veneer from logs acquired locally, or to rip logs into useful sections. I have an extremely ancient but venerable Whitehead bandsaw circa 1940's but it is too small to be much use in that respect.
Apart from a basic startup kit (inc. a Scheppach site saw), I've always acquired kit as and when I need it or if a paying job will cover the cost. Having recently acquired a very nice lathe however, I will be saving up for a large bandsaw (probably secondhand though):wink: .
cheers,
