I'm guessing the former. Probably the only reason that Aang didn't have deal with what he did during Sozin's Comet with Yakone, was because unlike Ozai he was really just a low-life criminal, with none of the grandeur and out-sized will of the megla-maniacal conqueror. That, and one's spirit probably only as to be unbendable if the person one's bending is putting up a fight; Aang Energybending Korra and Korra Energybending Lin (as corny as those scenes were), for example, probably were nowhere near as risky as even Aang's short battle with Yakone's will was, and the Lion Turtle certianly didn't look like it was risking anything when it transferred its knowledge to Aang (although then again, we really don't know what could present a risk to that type of creature, or how strong its willpower is).
