The inner part of the threading (closest to the flange) has the same
diameter and threading as a freewheel, with an outer, smaller diameter
section with reverse threading for a lockring.

I'm sure the fixed cog on freewheel hub works fine for thousands, and
I may even do it on my own bike. But I wouldn't set one up that way
for a customer. It seems obvious to me that Rivendell is trying to
avoid selling the QB as a fixed-gear. If people "convert" a QB to
fixed, by whatever means they choose, that would tend to absolve Riv
of any responsibility for any negative fixed-gear related outcomes.
