Nope. If done by the book, the left channel is M-S and the right channel is M+S. By slighlty compressing and EQ'ing the S signal, the stereo spread really stands out on it's own nicely. Try not to run the mono channel too high during mixdown. Make sure you've got pro headphones to really dial it in...makes all the difference.
