Not to hijack anyone’s thread, but for me this is an interesting discussion. Look at this from the PC side for a moment. Some perspective from two angles. 1) Though I have QT installed as a means of viewing .mov files outside of Premiere, exporting to Quicktime is a very random/seldom thing for me. QT is not a delivery method I use. I do purchase various animated backgrounds that often are in QT format, then import and work with them in Pr render-free like any other codec/file type. But QT is not a “workflow” for me. But if it was, the export to .mov format via 16 processors goes very fast. 2) Interesting that you say “gotcha.” For that thing (in this case) that FCP does well…perhaps quicker or maybe even render free as you allude, Pr on my system accelerates or is render free on a quantum of other processes (editing in general) such that at the end of the day a productivity comparison of the two systems might be substantially different. In that sense there is the risk of spending a dollar to earn a dime, so to speak. Productivity using Pr on equally configured mac and PC would be identical.

I use H.264 (.mp4) as my standard export of choice. So there ya go. Stick with FCP!
