What's more, mine uses linear rails and not wheels, but I don't know if the rails are really significantly better.
Generally using linear rails on a delta it does not, assuming you are using polycarb wheels, improve the print quality. This is due to being unable to adjust pre-load on the linear bearings, something that is a critical element to be able to adjust in order to get perfect prints on a delta (fyi if your carriages and/or effector can move down the Z axis under their own weight you don't have appropriate levels of bearing pre-load).

We'll have to disagree about that. It is important that the sliders don't rotate when the belt stops pulling one way and starts pulling the other way. This does not necessarily mean that with the belts disconnected, the carriages don't drop under their own weight.
