If a station and it's peer can both do VHT, is there ever a good

Not really; perhaps if you could do HT greenfield preamble (which VHT
doesn't have) you could get something out of it, beyond that I don't
see a reason to try.
Unless, for some strange reason, it supports only single stream VHT and
dual-stream HT or something really weird?
I was wondering if there was ever a reason that, say 450Mbps HT
would work better than MCS-1 for VHT. Or, maybe a mid-rate HT MCS would
have more range than VHT, or something like that.
After fighting with the firmware's rate-ctrl all day, I am even more interested
in trying to make it use mistrel_ht.
Thanks,
Ben
