Lots of stuff decodes well in QS, but that doesn't mean it is real or correct quad, aka instrument placement as intended. One good example of this is Pink Floyd AHM SQ: sometimes the SQ mix is more enjoyable when decoded in QS but the instrument placement, compared to the discrete UK Q8, is totally wrong.
What could be done, as a test, since we do have a real quad of SS in the Q4/Q8 tapes, to see if the original 1973 UK vinyl release does decode keeping the insrument placement in the same spots as the quad tapes... of course there's less separation than a discrete tape, but the basic musical structure and instrument placements should stay the same.
