Tidal will not remove hi-fi. In order for MQA to work, it has to be implemented two places as you probably know, so even if all Tidal was MQA, you would still only get the old hi-fi. Actually it important to understand Tidal will only support MAQ. This mean that they just "transmitt" what has been offered to them from the record companies. Right ? Also most Tidal is FLAC quality today. I hope you are not saying than less than 99% isn't. It's rater the opoøsite. (All Tidal is CD quality). Since takling about streaming quality. I'm using iPeng. I have several times tried to convince Pippin to have a more easier way to show what quality your stream is. With MQA even more important I think. We will se what he comes up with. He has given a solution that most likely will be available next year.
