Your bike should work fine. Should. Particularly if the frame is true and the wheel is straight in the frame with the axle all the way up the dropout.
that is incorrect.
QR skewers came along when horizontal dropouts were the norm. skewers can clamp down hard enough on horizontal dropouts without having the wheel slip even if it's a FG bike.
The key part however, is the type of clamping mechanism the skewer uses. Open cam and screw down style skewers don't have as much clamping force as a closed cam for the same amount of effort put into tightening it. Some of them use aluminum for the teeth that bite down, which squashes and slips on hardened steel dropouts. That is where that bogus idea arises.
You just need to tighten them a bit harder if it's open cam or screw down type, that's all there is to it.
