Can't we explain away the "sloppiness" very simply, by supposing that Quilty's real name is some other surname that begins with the letter Q?

I must say I long ago noticed the point about "My Cue" being supposedly


real and "Quilty" being supposedly peudonymous. I am afraid I did

wonder whether this was just VN being a bit sloppy. When one takes into


account Brian Boyd's argument that VN simply made a mistake about the

famous 56 days, might this not be the case here too?
