How important are quintiles and other minor aspects in synastry?

For example, if person A's Venus makes lots of major-aspect contacts with person B's planets, but B's Venus makes few major aspect contacts with A's Venus...some people would say that's a sign of a potential unrequited attraction, with A feeling more for B.

But what if, in the same scenario, B's Venus makes several tight-orbed minor aspect contacts to A's Venus? Are those minor aspects a lot less relevent?

Here are the Venus contacts with the synastry I had in mind. On the "guess the synastry" thread, someone pointed to lopsided Venus contacts as a sign that the attraction would be one-sided.

A's VENUS:
-trine B's Moon (1)
-sextile B's Venus (3)
-sesquiquadrate B's Jupiter (1)
-square B's Saturn (8)
-trine B's Uranus (7)
-quincunx B's Neptune (2)
-square B's Pluto (0)
-semisquare B's NN (1)
-sextile B's Chiron (1)
-square B's Vertex (3)
-quintile B's ASC (1)

B's VENUS:
-sextile A's Venus (3)
-quintile A's Saturn (0)
-semisextile B's Uranus (2)
-quintile B's Neptune (1)
-conjunct A's Pluto (8)
-quincunx B's Chiron (2)
-square B's ASC (8)

What would it mean if both people had ONLY (or mostly) minor aspects between inner planets?

The more I look (esp. in natals, actually), the more I realize that quintiles bring a kind of electric, magic, miraculous energy...and, esp. compared to other minor aspects and even the sextile, I find them very apparent--that is, I "feel" them in every synastry, and definitely in my natal the quintiles point out the areas where I get the most satisfaction in life.

i would think it would mean you creatively find solutions to emotionally upsetting experiences. or creative ways to work out any mars type aggression. i would think that is an excellent quintile to have.

moon - emotions
mars - energy
quintile - creativity
