Sounds like the MAX specification for the buses , was just like the Inter-urban livery which also became the standard livery for vehicles .
The problem being is that even this livery that they sorted seems to have some differing versions , so i dont hold out much hope about all the max and sapphire specs being the same over the coming time .

I think the point that is being made is that the current standard specification of Interurban livery, leatherette seats and Wi-Fi is similar to MAX spec rather than MAX is now standard. Certainly, I would be very surprised if all future repaints and deliveries are to be MAX livery as it makes the branding completely redundant.
There is a small difference in quality in that MAX buses have high-backed seating and different coloured leatherette seating, but I would agree that it's not much of a step up from standard. For what it's worth, I also think the MAX livery is fairly dire.

Looks dire on the pulsar.max livery

For me the MAX livery is a revert back to the old standard livery but with a different front colour, especially on the double deckers.

Leather seats and WiFi may become standard on new buses but the MAX branding is just a name for the well used, frequent routes. Also MAX don't have plugs or USB ports.

Usually engine or gearbox work.
