On Rosh haShono, despite being judged between life & death, we eat festive meals.
From 1 aspect, this makes it very hard to get into the right frame of mind and really be in trepidation of Yom haDin as we have such festive family meals.
Yet this enables people with weak disposition to easily get to Shul unlike Yom Kippur when many people become bedridden to be able to complete the Tzom. But from the other perspective, it is much easier to get into a serious frame of mind on Yom Kippur than on Rosh haShono, when we are feasting.
