So the 4100 doesn't have autoformers even though it has the power guard circuitry?MAC4100 is a direct coupled amplifier unlike most of Mc's standalone amplifiers which are Autoformer (AB). So that's one difference.
4100's literature doesn't seem to indicate.

The manual to my MC2125's says the output stage operates in class B
I've seen LOTS of Mc designs with Class B output stages - look at the top of an MC2300. This is not at all uncommon nor is it bad when crossover distortion is eliminated.Shame on me for not knowing this, owning two.
However, Mc was quick to point out this Class B design does not have notch type distortion (for which Class B amplifiers are generally known to exhibit).

Indeed. If Mc saw fit to use the design, that's enough for me.
