I had some rear upfiring speakers also but I ditched them because my ceiling is too high for the heights to work anyway D=. Even without the heights though you get SIGNIFICANTLY improved positional audio. Things like panning from front to rear are seamless, especially with timbre matched speakers.

I mounted some speakers in the ceiling (I think they're ceiling mid rather than ceiling front or ceiling rear) and whilst there's not that many things that really take advantage of them, some stuff is fantastic.
The voices in Max's head in Fury Road are great and the sounds of below decks in Master and Commander stood out too.

I’d imagine that makes plane flyovers amazing.
