The coach from Liverpool Street is actually the same one that comes
from Victoria, leaving Liverpool Street 32 minutes after the 0200,
0230, 0300, 0335 and 0400 A7 National Express departures from
Victoria.

Do you mean that the A7 is also the Stansted Express night service?
The latter are timed to depart LS every 30 minutes from 0230 to 0430
and, I always assumed, charged train fares.

If these are two separate things that now that National Express run
the Stansted Express one of the LS to STN routes will surely be
discontinued.

'One' has taken over the Stansted Express from WAGN. However, both
WAGN and 'One' are owned by National Express. Clearly, stopping the
A7 at Liverpool Street enables Stansted Express to operate a night
coach service at little extra cost, as the coach would be operating
anyway.

As a result, I would expect it to be business as usual.
