The ASNSM in CS is going to have more theory and more math and science, while the AAS will be more practical (applied) in nature. I would be more impressed with the CS degree. The same thing goes for the BS in Software Development being more applied than a Bachelor's in CS, but to a lesser degree. The difference is probably small after you have 5 years of experience under your belt, but some jobs (biotech, aerospace, artificial intelligence, etc...) might be permanently out of reach without the math and theory you would get with the CS degree.
Note: I was a successful software engineer for 30+ years without a degree at all before I got mine at TESU.
