The current Troy Bilt tillers may be even better than when they were exclusively Troy Bilt. Good stuff from other designs (that MTD own) can be incorporated to fix problem spots that the Troy Bilt maybe had.
Car manufacturers do it all the time: Volvo S40 purchased from Mitsubishi and now owned by Ford, Jaguars bought by Ford, Chrysylers merged with MB (quality actually went down in MBs in this case though), etc.
My Troy Bilt chipper/shredder was not equal in quality to McKissic ones. If these two combined, they could make a really good product; I'd think.
