HRTF decoding is the problem here. Finding a proper HRTF profile by
trying many (over of hundred) is not a solution; realistic binaural
reproduction works only when I listen to my own binaural recordings.
So, to enjoy "mass produced" ambisonics, I'd need personalized HRTF
measurements, a service that is not cheap and non-existent for a
majority of "HRTF challenged" people; for us, decoding ambisonics over
4 speakers is a better option,
It is undeniable that listening to FOA over a bunch of speakers will
mess up your 'personallised (actual) HRTFs' considerably..

Frankly, this is a messed up statement. You need HRTFs if listening via
headphones.
Just for clarification. (Nobody corrected this.)
The < undeniable > tag doesn't help a lot, BTW.
