It has been said here quite a few times that the 50/1.7 is a better macro lens, but I don't think there was a 1.7 past the M or A series. That said, I could never tell the difference between the M50/1.4 and the M50/1.7 when used with xtension tubes and when the lenses were used stopped down to 5.8 or smaller apertures. I don't ever recall using either lens at anything wider than 5.6 ....
