Default Broadheads ok, .410 not ok?

I have a (probably) stupid question, but when comparing the knockdown power of a broadhead arrow and a .410 slug the slug seem to outclass the broadhead.
Now , i know the broadhead causes bleeding while the .410 causes shock, but in the SAME situation, same range, same shot placement wouldn't a .410 cause the same damage as a broadhead?
This is a purely hypothetical question.
I know the broadhead works as a cutting implement ( larger wound profile) when inside the animal but once it excited the animal is it about the same effect as a .410 slug?
