Hmm when evolving, the levels, loyalty, and so forth (not the stats gained from Limit Breaking if it's on a fodder unit) are transferred to the base unit. So I don't think there's that much of a difference if they're both maxed. Of course, if you're (for some odd reason) using a higher version card to evolve, it might be overwritten.
