I think this post is confusing the QS feature with the escape mechanism on some 2007-2008 shifters.

I had 2007 Centaur shifters. The right shifter would upshift (to a smaller cog) one at a time. That's how a shifter with the escape mechanism works.

When the Centaur shifter failed, I replaced them with 2008 Record QS shifters. The Record shifters work very well and allow you to upshift or downshift 5 cogs at a time.

The QS feature reduces the amount of travel it takes to shift the front derailleur if used with QS front derailleur.
