Exactly.

So the recommendation to set "preferences" before entering QEdit
is spurious as far as QCTerm is concerned, you're going to lose
lines greater than 24 every time, and pull your Window back
down with your mouse.  (Or maximize it.)

Entering SET VISUAL BELOW 46 only help as long as you're 
in VISUAL mode.  As soon as you exit, 'POP' goes your Window,
back to 24.

As far as Reflection goes, Bruce Collins had a good answer.
