QS -> Quick Start
means different things to different people

I take QS as meaning decisions made to improve early game performance, including more likely choosing an immunity, no TT PRT, etc.

if you testbed a bit you will see that classic QS is giving early game performance quite well (2k econ @ HW at 2415-20) in such slow and limited tech game while -f is barely getting there with 6 breeders. Do not forget that bazooka costs 15-16k investment in such a game and classic QS has the power to invest it early enough while -f has not.

Main problem with -f is that it has nowhere to invest the points from tech while techless classic QS can improve its econ or hab. Nod

I would go CA HG with TT + cheap bio in such a game if allowed. 7 points of initial instaforming in game where others have to push it like hell to gain 7 points of normal terraforming? Absolute no-brainer.
