No sternum. Which is more dangerous - front airbag or seatbelt?

I am a 64-year old female who’s had her sternum surgically removed. I drive a 2007 Subaru Tribeca which has fantastic safety features like a 6-point airbag system. I’ve been told I would not survive a front airbag deployment, but now I’m wondering which is worse - the airbag or the seatbelt strapped across my heart? Also, it’s against the law (in Wisconsin anyway) to disable an airbag so my dealer can’t help me. Anyone out there with answers or opinions?
