Ah, yes, I remember those details. You may very well end up being correct. Although QRP isn't infallible - recent memory, I'd point to their pressing of the US Abbey Road anniversary (it was complete shit); but generally very good, true.
Still, while you may be correct (certainly w/ packaging - I don't care about color but it is, admittedly, sharp looking; and the gatefold is a treat), the MOV is a proven stellar sounding press. What I'd suggest is if you keep stanning this pressing before you hear, you're liable to set yourself up for confirmation bias and hear it as better before your needles ever hits wax.
