Fascinating article. I just did an experiment with a 4-track demo mix (guitar, bass, percussion and vocal) and mixed all the instruments to one side, and the vocal to the other. I didn't find the vocal more comprehensible in one ear or the other, but when the vocal was exclusively in the left and all the music to the right, there was a definte... disturbing quality to the music that wasn't there before.
This might help a touch with making lyrics more comprehensible in final mixdown.
