Unlike Stacks, which *requires* you to use their STX token, Liquid uses L-BTC which is the direct peg from BTC to interact with the network.
You can easily swap between Bitcoin and Liquid with services like [SideSwap.io](https://sideswap.io/peg-in-out/) and [BoltzExchange](https://boltz.exchange/swap) for Lightning and Liquid. Both of these are #nokyc.
Liquid is a tool, whether you need faster payments or more privacy; including your example of fighting against high fees. On top of that it's [federation](https://liquid.net/) includes many recognized #Bitcoin companies.
Liquid is not perfect, nor do I recommend it unless you have specific use case.
Stacks on the other hand is a shit-platform for shit-coins disguised as a layer 2, so that pre-mined tokens can get swapped for real btc by Stacks' creators.
