You need a bit of luck to make hands like this, but I believe throwing away the QC is flat out a mistake. An AQ combo in clubs is much better than an AJ in hearts when it comes to making the second suit into a boss card, and you're less likely to need a protector for a green ace, while it's more likely when it comes to aces in next.

That is correct. Throwing out the QC was a flat out mistake. You explained perfectly why. After the ace is led, the QC is more likely to be boss than the JH, and that's important. That's a subtle thing that most players overlook.
