I understand that some will pass them, but I would be more concerned why other don't and why the manufacturer of said product warns against it as well.

That being said, you won't really know until you really need it.
You make a big deal about using the QF/QFP in cars that the harnesses weren't designed for (which is warranted), but you also suggest pairing the QF/QFP with a "proper racing seat":

You know Schroth states that QF/QFP aren't approved for use with fixed back seats, right? There's currently only one fixed back race seat that Schroth has approved for use with QF/QFP.
I would of course do the research first. If there is only one that is approved, I'd get that. That's what I mean by "proper". If you need to run a harness, I'd do that. My point was, the stock seats aren't approved. If you really want to use the quick fit, you have to get another seat that works with it.

Kinda defeats the point of a "quick fit" though doesn't it?
