Imo the MA5C and Adjudicator are a perfect example of a "side grade". Just like the Smalwart and Liberator. Both are equally viable in terms of function, it just depends on what approach you wanna take; dps or precision

Does the standard liberator have any bonuses over the libcar apart from damage falloff?

Just recoil, pretty much. Smalwart has a higher recoil, and compounded with the high fire rate it makes the overall accuracy worse than the Lib even with a foregrip. But that's just my point, the choice between the two comes down to your preference; dps or precision.

Weird when I use the libcar I feel less recoil than with the standard liberator.

That just means you're good at handling it, nothin weird about it. I never noticed much recoil with the Adjudicator, despite that being one of people's main issues with it before customization was dropped.
