If you want a "style" that is "easier" then look to the low budget grocery store CGI movie scene. Those are styled with cost and time in mind.
The anime face is deceptively complex. If the surface dips or peaks or twists in the wrong place it sticks out like a sore thumb. Your life is going to be rolling the model back and forth looking for tiny defects and tediously correcting them. Then repeating as your fix caused another defect. Something like a realistic face, with all it's flaws and biological inconsistencies, isn't as finicky about. Rather a realistic face will demand a lot of labor creating a lot of details.
None of the styles that actually look good are easy. You simply trade one labor set for another. What do you like to do for many many hours? What's the CGI task you wish was your job and you could wake and do it until it was time to go to sleep? Pick a style that makes you do that the most.
