I have to admit the POV thing threw me for a bit of a loop while I was reading, mostly because you're usually more solidly in a subjective one, but this is a good explanation for the difference. I think since I've read so many fics where the author head hops back and forth due to ignorance or laziness, I'm unfairly biased against any sort of third person (quasi) omniscient.
I liked the Makepeace scenes, especially the commissary make-up scene where he doesn't know what to say after finding out SG-1 doesn't know Jack's leaving. Makes him more rounded as a character than he's often portrayed in fics.
