I think this is apples and oranges. I can't speak for anyone else, but when I have made references to This Is 40 songs, I am talking specifically about Lindsey's tracks. I'm not sure I have paid that much attention to the other stuff, to be honest. When you compare the soundtrack's Lindsey songs to his production since Cradle, the evidence is there for all to hear that Lindsey has gone way, way too far with the studio tricks.

Another point I would make is that uneven production is typical of movie soundtracks. When you think about it, you are often pulling together already-released songs that might have been produced very differently.
