So...go both. Create a character, whatever race you want (though argonian might prove the best)-
Illusion
Alchemy
Light Armor
Marksman
Blade
Athletics
Acrobatics
Main Attributes-
Agility and your choice of speed, willpower, or strength.
Birth Sign- The thief or steed, your choice.
That'd be a pretty solid character right there.

Illusion is useful for chamelion spells, allowing you to sneak much easier. And why in the world would you wear heavy armor if you want to be stealthy?

Stealth & Blunt: The two most powerful blunt weapons (battle axe and warhammer) don't do critical damage on a sneak attack. Neither does a claymore, but a longsword does. So, blade has a slight edge over blunt (no pun intended) for a character who uses sneak attacks a lot.
Heavy vs. Light Armor: at lower skill levels, light armor is much better for stealthy characters. When you become a Journeyman of Sneak, you can sneak in any boots, so heavy armor becomes more practical. Heavy armor becomes even better for stealthy characters if your Heavy Armor skill is expert level, because heavy armor you wear encumbers you less. The difference between heavy and light armor almost disappears at master level (heavy armor doesn't encumber a master of heavy armor at all, but a master of light armor gets a 50% armor bonus for light armor, making it almost as strong as heavy armor).
Why would a stealthy character want to wear heavy armor? I dunno. But here's why a character who wears heavy armor might want to be stealthy: a maniac in daedric armor clanking and rumbling toward you is intimidating, but a maniac in daedric armor slipping gracefully toward you, silent as a shadow, is just plain creeeeeeeeeepy!!!

Can the answer to this question be "No"?

Not sure which part you thought might be boring, but it's always nice to have options. If a sneak master goes around silently backstabbing every bandit and mudcrab with a daedric longsword, it's true you won't encounter much resistance. But if I'm low on health, no healing & sorcery potions left, and there's one xivilai between me and the sigil stone, no WAY does he get a fair fight from me

You shouldn't take both blunt and blade as majors. You should pick your favorite and consider making it a minor skill. I just say that because if you wanna use one or the other all the time, it will will increaase anyways, but if it's a major skill you may find yourself gaining levels too fast. Just a suggestion.
Something else to consider, while working up your sneak skill, hotkey your boots. That way it's nothing to take them off and on quickly.
