One good thing about the pedal based system is that the stoker does not appear to affect the Captain's power.

When I take my feet out of the pedals and just the stoker pedals, the power goes to zero.

Not sure that would be true with a crank based system.
I haven't had the Quarg cranks on the back of our tandem yet but the readings from them on the front are certainly comparable to what I get with them on my solo bike.
