Damage to swarms

This just came up in the most recent game session I ran, but how does MoS interact with attacking swarms? Does the +5 and +10 apply as normal or do the rules for damaging swarms take precedent? It seems to me that there could be some really weird interactions if the bonus damage is allowed.

I mean, I'd have to check

I mean, I'd have to check exactly how swarm damage works again, but since the +5 is a modifier to the roll (just like, say, the native +4 on a Heavy Pistol) it probably applies in certain times, like if you do half DV for fire(?), you'd account for the bonus and then halve the total, probably.
