Impossible to answer as they are two different vocal ranges. Each voice must be judged individually. The difference between a spinto and a mezzo would not lie as much in the notes that can be reached, either higher or lower, as in where the voice sounds best. Some people have voices which one teacher might diagnose as a mezzo, while another teacher might diagnose as a dramatic soprano, or at least a spinto. Some roles, such as Carmen or Santuzza have historically been sung by both mezzos and sopranos. Singers such as Grace Bumbry have started as mezzos, and later moved up to some soprano roles. You can look on YouTube and see a video of her singing both Amneris and Aida in a big duet. For some people the choice is clear, for other people, it is a question that can only be answered over time. It might be easier to find more work as a mezzo, but if one spends too much time singing in the wrong range, one could strain the voice.
