^Granted, the last time I played with a whip was probably around U16, but from that experience I remember the range on slide attacks being somewhat lacking as compared to the whip's normal attack range (hence why I said "afaik"). I compared slide ranges of the Atterax and Galatine Prime in the Simulacrum and what I saw was anywhere between a 0.5-1m difference, which is a decent margin but nothing ground breaking nor significantly advantageous.

With the target limit I had originally just looked up both Atterax's and Galatine's stats and came up with those numbers as I thought they could be trusted, but because you brought it up I also tested that attribute. I found out neither of them seem to have a target limit as far as I can tell (both of them hitting well over 8 enemies in one attack).

As such I will admit I made a couple of misjudgments, however, this still doesn't change all the other points made; Atterax will not out DPS Galatine in any situation I can think of and it only has a greater attack range to truly boast over Galatine.

All this is not to say Atterax is a bad weapon in any way though, it is in fact a very high tier weapon imo as 52,643.376 dmg is still quite impressive, I'm merely making the point that Atterax does not out tier Galatine/Prime in any way as Lone Tenno 88.192 so arrogantly stated to everyone's surprise.
