Why is dressage better than western?

It could be said that dressage is better than western riding because dressage emphasizes balance and communication of horse and rider. It is in fact very similar to the western sport of reining, which requires the horse and rider to ride a pattern before a judge in the same way dressage does. The movements required for reining are slightly different from those of dressage, but the idea behind the two sports is the same.
