Wasps are generaly all-purpose assholes who go out of their way to bother you, while I’ve had a hornets nest on my balcony and had one crawl over my fingers without issue.
I have had the same experience too in the US. Yellowjacket wasps are the absolute worst while hornets are chill unless you get really close to their nest.
