30kbps/22khz stereo, which I think would only be possible with managed
bitrates, would sound worse than mono.  At these bitrates, stereo is
luxury you cannot afford.  I think most listeners would not even notice
they were listening to mono and would appreciate the higher sound
quality.
64kb/s, however, is another story.

Cheers,
Ross.
