hillspecial, while you had a bad experience I am not sure you can make a general statement like that.
Engineers could probably answer it but I will always go for ahead over quill (lighter, and doesn't flex all over the place when sprinting/going up hill/jumping around etc,.)
However, if I was going for a classic steel framed build I would still go quill!
