If they board through 2L door (DL probably mostly does, AA usually doesn't) then the 757 is far superior if you're in F because you don't have all the coach passengers traipsing through the cabin.
And then in-flight it's better as well since coach pax never have to come up and use the F lavatory, they can use the one at the front of Y.
I'd check out the seat map on the LAX-MCO DL 757 - if it's 16 seats then it would be an internationally-configured plane with flat beds (always subject to change though), which would probably tilt the whole itinerary toward DL. But I suspect they wouldn't have those aircraft on that route normally.
