Writer's Note
Shall we discuss the subtle difference between "more" vs. "better"? Since the above examples have shown you that contextually "better" is used to express alternative or another. "More" and "better" are both grammatical, but they mean different things. You would need to pay close attention to the context of what is being said to understand what the person is saying.
Let's compare a few sentences.
- I like purple more. 👉 I like purple better.
- I enjoy pizza more than pasta. 👉 I enjoy pizza better than pasta.
- She plays soccer more than tennis. 👉 She plays soccer better than tennis.
- He drinks whisky more than beer. 👉 He drink whisky better than beer.
- They communicate more than usual. 👉 They communicate better than usual.
मैं पास्ता की तुलना में पिज्जा का अधिक आनंद लेता हूँ। 👉 I enjoy pizza better than pasta.

Notice the subtle differences but in some sentences you can see that it really depends on context. There really is no wrong answer but there is a more natural or common way of expressing what you say using "better" or "more".
