What would be the difference, if any, between someone writing a retro-style sci-fi novel in the style of those from the 60's or 70's, versus someone who had read those books from the 60's or 70's and wasn't aware of anything else?

What does this mean? Does this human exist in a vacuum or are they living now with all our culture and no other books than 60s-70s sci-fi?

the writer who'd read more would be able to bring a richer experience to the novel and be able to expand the genre.

I don't get your question. The main difference would be that one wrote and published a book as a job while the other reads in his spare time.

Not really, yoiu can read a lot and be a really poor writter. Consimunig isn't training for production.

Not really, you don't get it. He isn't asking for a tier system of which is better, he is asking what would be the difference, as in the first words of his sentence he posted. Your spelling is also primary level.

Are you asking: Who would write a better 70s sci-fi novel, a novelist in the 70s or a modern novelists purposely emulating that style whose work is transported back in time to compete against it?

Let's go with that. For me to better describe what I'm asking would require a wall of text.

So you want to write a transistor-age sci fi story?
The problem with your question is you aren't specific enough about what kind of 'difference' you mean.
A modetn writer would have to do some research to make his story sound authentically like the period you mention.
