Quite correct.  If you "send", say, a Birth event to nFS which you have
recorded as "Mar Q 1856, Liverpool Registration District" it appears on
nFS as "Liverpool Registration District" and a blank where the date
should be.

For me, it follows that the problem is not with Legacy, but

Yes, I meant to add before I posted that as the Q date format is so
widely used/recognized, the ideal would be for nFS to be modified either
to accept Q dates in the standard format or to extract the year portion
from a Q date, neither of which (particularly the latter) would be very
difficult, I would have thought.
