Hi Bob,
Yuck!
Indeed that's what I would say also.
I for one can't stand anti-phased headphones. I once discussed that over
using stereo-headphones being fed at tip and ring and left the common
open. The comment was: No one hears that. Well I do! Splitting mono into
high and low pitched sound seems fine at start but fatigues just as much
as anti-phase. Only the spacial setting on the KX3 is very useful but
even then I like to switch back to mono at times.
Just my €0,01

Yuck! As a retired recording studio engineer, CBS Records, having the
same signal out of phase by 180 degrees to one ear, is much like
sticking and ice pick in ones ears.
Most systems will have a variable phase shift depending on frequency,
usually not to exceed 30 degrees. In this case, the leading phase
signal will appear from that direction. In others, bandpass filtering
moves the higher frequency to one side and the lower to the other. From
an audio perspective, this still sounds like "fake stereo". It is
just messed up monaural. There's lots of that today.
The K3S has the AFX function that does an excellent job of signal
spatialization and sounds quite nice on SSB signals.
