They're not really equivalent. The Pi is a full-blown computer, for better and for worse. The Pi Zero draws 70mA at idle, while the Pi 3B draws more like 300mA

They're not really equivalent. The Pi is a full-blown computer, for better and for worse. The Pi Zero draws 70mA at idle, while the Pi 3B draws more like 300mA even with most of the peripherals turned off. With a bit of tweaking, an Arduino will run for months on a coin cell.
