Crop sensor Image quality perk?

Hello All,

I was just thinking. I have been using a large collection of Minolta MD/MC primes in a Sony A7R. Excellent results but sometimes these older lens designs fall a bit short at the edges and corners of the image. My Sony A6000 crop body will be here in the Morning and I wonder if the smaller image circle will yield a unintended quality boost in terms of edge sharpness. Since the camera will only be using the sweet spot in the center of the image this seems to follow.

Thoughts?
