I think it's horses for courses really. I've operated both with different types of operation. If you've been brought up on QNH during initial training you don't think twice about the issue of calculating pattern altitude.
But then again the QFE/QNH debate is as old as aviation.
One thing I do know observing in the simulator is I've seen more bust missed approach heights/altitudes when the approach has been flown on QFE and QNH has not been set on the Go Around; this applies in particular with higher performance aircraft with a relatively low level off.
I was with one operator when we changed from QFE to QNH operation in the 1980s and thereafter I rarely saw a bust missed approach altitude on a Go Around.
