[@andrew_owens7680]

It's impossible to say really, because the conditions have changed so much. Morphy played games that the computer ranks near 100%, but he never had opponents as strong as the ones Magnus did. Fischer achieved what he achieved without computer analysis. Magnus has spent hundreds if not thousands of hours analyzing with computers. Plus, he has all the games of people like Morphy and Fischer to look at. Unlike Spassky, he didn't have his childhood interrupted by WWII. Unlike Alekhine, he didn't have to take time off to be a soldier. Unlike Morphy, his path wasn't limited by the lower level of his opponents. Unlike Kasparov, he never had to contend with the Soviet mind games which extended far beyond the board. For example, Korchnoi's son was arrested during the world championship match.

You cant perform QB8+ from Qe6. You'd have to be on Qe5 or Qd6, because the queen has no legal move to go there. If you look carefully, the queen can perform QC8+ if that is what you meant. This does exactly the same thing and doesn't put the queen in danger.
