Not really. She trades some things for others. I think since she is more of a realist helps her more. In Shinjuku in spite of the worse Instinct she was more observant and opted to gather more information first than acting. She was brutal and did suggest just nuking places out but it wasn’t like she was a Berserker and dropped those when they were ruled out. In fact I think this is what sets her apart from one. It’s like she knew she doesn’t have “brakes” so she preferred to act around that. When she sees an elusive opponent faster than her (Rider and Assassin of Shinjuku) while she did battle, she could gauge they were troublesome to keep up and needed to strategize accordingly. Her downsides are laid bare but she isn’t blind to them.
I think this actually gives her a huge edge over her normal version. In the VN and Zero whenever Artoria’s Instinct went of and failed her it usually was because she misinterpreted it (Diarmuid strategy, Medea’s hidden dragon tooth soldier. She got the warning but assumed it referred to the wrong thing). Alter is more sluggish but that makes her more cautious
