For those using Tidal with a DAC that doesn't support MQA, what is your preferred "Passthrough MQA" setting?

From my understanding, if it is set to true (on), the Tidal application will not decode Master/MQA tracks. What are the benefits of disabling decoding, if any?

ps - this is not a discussion about the pros and cons of MQA, merely trying to understand this specific setting.
