It's all on the first few pages of the thread:
1. The Quiet Bridge Visual arrival is not aligned with the ILS (post #90);
2. The QB requires aircraft to visually self-separate with the adjacent aircraft down final because the runways are so close together; independent approaches (vis or ILS) can't be flown;
3. LH SOPs do not permit visual self-separation.
