Freedom Cry - as DLC or Stand-alone?

[Graesholt]

It is my intention to play all the Assassin's Creed instalments (finished [the story of] Brotherhood Today, and installing Revelations as I type) and I noticed that Fredom Cry is on steam both as a DLC for Black Flag and as a Stand alone game.

I was wondering; am I best served getting it as a DLC or Stand-alone?
Does playing it as DLC allow access to the content of other Blag Flag DLC or something?
Is there any bonus or detriment to getting it as a Stand-alone titel?

Personally, I'd prefer having it as Stand-alone, as I regard it as sort of its own thing, but I'm not sure. Hopefully you guys can help persuade me in the right direction (:
Thanks!

(I feel I have to add that price is not a variable in the comparison. [Because I am a moron] I am willing to pay the Stand-alone price just to have it look nice in my Steam Library.
I need to know the best option, regardless of price...)

Anyone?

I got it as stand-alone. I heard there can be some kind of conflict if you have black flag only on uplay and get the dlc from steam so better get the stand-alone. It's same content.

And there are no interplay/Bonuses with having other DLC for Black Flag?
Nothing like that?

I think no because I have black flag deluxe and with it came Aveline "story line" that you just choose from main manu and it is completly seperate from main campaing. I guess freedom cry dlc goes like that too.
