No room to over brace the 14, the stock arm interferes with the fuel pump already if you lower the bike too much.
Neither is better than the other, both deliver less lateral flex, and better handling.

natural selection.....
destiny will overcome intervention.
Some are not worthy of the effort.

ground clearance legth of swingarm, clearance above the swingarm, cost... all of these are factors to consider when deciding. FOr most close to stock applications neither underbracing or Loop bracing (both over and under) or overbracing is needed when you get into some serious power or weight of rider then I might would consider underbracing. Like Dubious said there is no room to overbrace a 14 swingarm
