With a screen resistor out the amp is only running on one power tube, so the maximum power is a quarter of what it should be (not half) and above extremely low volume the waveform is half chopped off.
That would definitely give you very low headroom and bad-sounding breakup. It would apply to both channels but you may notice it more as a problem on the clean channel unless you were cranking the dirty channel up, when it would not have much power - and also sound worse than it should.
