Is this statement in jest or actually thought as correct? Millions of bikes have had horizontal drop outs and their rear wheels were held in place perfectly well (assume proper tightening of the QR).


If you're advocating for the OP to go single speed/fixie just say so, don't go around the block and blame a QR for a problem that doesn't exist. The OP stated the QR holds the wheel where ever he locates in within the slot.


Remind me of the distraction with alternative facts that we see elsewhere... Andy.
