I wonder whether I (as a basically untrained listener) would've been able to tell the difference if you had been the same number of people, in the same configuration, singing four 4-part choirs? That is to say, instead of 7-10 people in each choir singing 5 parts, 7-10 people singing 4 parts; and doubled choirs (1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4 instead of 1,2,3, .. 8).
I expect I would only be able to tell when, say, choir 1 was different from 2 (or 1 and 2 were each doing something different in harmony with 7 and 8 respectively!)
That was one of the neatest part of it for me, how I could appreciate the space between the choirs.
