what if one product (same mechanism) had better safety/tolerability or was more convenient[\quote]

If all they had in common was the same MOA then the drug with orphan status would have no more protection than if it had no orphan status. There may some slightly breadth of protection than patent protection but if all it has in common with the orphan drug than the only protection the orphan drug has is patent protection.
