Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AUTH thru at none against Fantastical Calendar's 10. AUTH thru also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Fantastical Calendar's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#145 vs unranked). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
