The reason that I think the blow to the head is a little more severe, is because that could cause LASTING injury (eye socket fracture, cuts, broken noses, etc..) where the elbow to the body will just leave a bruise, or at worst, the loss of air for a while.
Everyone accepts that the elbow to the head is more aggressive and openly an attempt to injur than one thrown to the body. If I am a player and one is given to me in the chest, I will look at the official for a call, if one goes by my noggin, IT'S ON!
I bet if you would poll players as such you would get the same response.
...and in the verse of Forrest Gump, that is all I have to say abayout thaaaaaat.......
