What is the capital of Tunisia?

Can you swap “plus” with “aussi” without any practical difference here?

Using “plus” sounds to me that it is a bit more emphasized.

Both “plus” and “aussi” in that sentence would express that the security controls are very rigorous, however, telling me that:

Le 1er aéroport a des contrôles de sécurité tous plus rigoureux les uns que les autres.

And

Le 2nd aéroport a des contrôles de sécurité tous aussi rigoureux les uns que les autres

I would understand that both airports’ security is excellent but I would say it is slightly better for the first one.

In conclusion, there’s a little difference between these constructions and the “aussi” form doesn’t remove the hyperbolic nature of the expression.

For me there is a little (subjective) difference between “plus” and “aussi”

tous aussi rigoureux les uns que les autres

Mean that all checks perfectly follow the same strict protocol.

tous plus rigoureux les uns que les autres

Mean that all check tries to be better than others.

In all case this mean that there is a high level of security.
