You're leveraging the benefit of years of time with one case and comparing against the other after only a day or two. We don't know what will be known with the benefit of time here, judging a comparison here needs to use a similar timeline. A few days after the email server situation leaked we were seeing a very similar situation to today. One party either denied it happened, refused to answer, or claimed nothing classified was shared on an insecure channel. Hilary did this and it turns out they found nothing shared was technically classified but upon further inspection it should have been. Trump and his people are similarly claiming nothing classified was shared, that may turn out to be false of it may turn out to technically be true only because it hadn't been officially reviewed yet, we simply don't know yet. Are those two situations so dissimilar that, in your opinion, it still falls into the whataboutism bucket? To me they aren't, though that's also fairly uncommon as many times I see "what about..." claims they aren't easily comparable and are more of a distraction or grasping at tribalistic straws.
