Not at this point you won't have such controversy, not from me.  I realized
after I wrote it that there could be such a problem, and I'm not so
enamored of the sentence that I want to fight about it, so I'm willing to
see it as "QuchmoH'a' Quch?" or even "Quch Quch 'oH'a'?" (different
meaning).

'Course, it's probably worth arguing about anyway.
