Read the first post.

With default settings maVR does things "better": you get higher quality chroma upscaling (necessary for >95% of content), better precision for calculations (higher quality RGB conversion), possibly better VSync, exclusive mode is great in terms of improved usability, those are probably most important for average user (like me).

With a little tweaking: you get the ability to calibrate your display, correct black levels with broken drivers/codecs/old (incompatible) TVs, switch refresh rate to match video, ability to use xySubFilter (higher quality subtitles and better performance, especially in ASS format), ability to set scaling algorithms to your liking (or hardware restrictions), the list goes on and on
