if that is the only two things you use then the second one is an odd choice because there are a lot of other more important characteristics of bitcoin to mention before the hashrate! for instance the most important thing is the decentralization and boarderlessness of bitcoin which i would focus on when i am introducing bitcoin to others. additionally new people must also be educated about ways to store and use bitcoin as most of them would ignore security (like using cold storage) and may even store their bitcoin on the exchange they buy it from! and that's a terrible idea.
