As I understand it, MC simply reduces natural dispersion of glass.
Since the ideal lens would be air that somehow coerced light into the
proper pattern, and each piece of glass adds a little bit of
dispersion, MC just corrects an inherent flaw. Therefore, adding a
piece of MC glass to the front just means that it will do less damage
than a piece of SC or uncoated glass.
