The _MBO symbols use the Price and Volume data from the U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape with the Market Depth from the NASDAQ TotalView. So the Bar data (and hence Numbers Bars study) will be exactly the same between the symbols that are just the ticker and the ticker with _MBO. That is, TSLA and TSLA_MBO are going to give the exact same bar data. So what you are seeing is correct.

You can not say that the data from either exchange option is "more accurate". It depends on what you want to see and how you are trading. The NASDAQ TotalView is just the trades from the NASDAQ. The U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape is the consolidated trades from approximately 18 exchanges.
