Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Drastic Calc at none against The Calculator !'s 1. Drastic Calc also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). The Calculator !'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
