MQA is for chumps

I never invested in any hardware supporting MQA and dumped Tidal as soon as Qobuz became available in the US. Qobuz blows away Tidal in both in SQ and content. 
Yeah watched this the other day (thanks YouTube for sticking it in my feed)
Just the fact they tried/did delete his material speaks volumes.

I have a bluesound node with mqa and when I was looking for a DAC I originally thought mqa was a must-have for the DAC. Then I decided to ignore MQA and this video makes me feel a lot better about that decision.
Does anyone have any experience with CDs encoded with MQA? I have a fair number of the Japanese MQA encoded discs and have wondered if I would get a benefit in purchasing a DAC that has the capability.
My first streamer was a Naim that did not support MQA. I was very envious at the time of those who could run Qobuz and Tidal/MQA. I upgraded to a dCS and had Tidal and Qobuz for about 6 months. I tried and tried to think MQA was an advantage, but all I got in my ears was different, but not better. Tidal was also going for a buyer with different musical preferences than I. Now I only subscribe to Qobuz  and have no concerns I am missing anything.
