I think I finally figured it out. :P

The Base damage is, for most Raw +5 weapons, equal to the weapons +13 counterpart. But Raw is available after defeating Capra and +11-15 is avaiable after draining New Londo. Raw is also cheaper (making a poor scaling +13 for nothing but Large Shards) but Standard is superior once you have enough chunks for a +13.
