If someone used to be a quantum physicist but has changed professions, is it correct to call that person a quondam quantum physicist?

And if they got in a line, would it be a queue of quondam quantum physicists?

And if they do it every five years, would it be a quinquennial queue of quondam quantum physicists?

Query, should you serve quail quiche to a quartet of quondam quantum physicists while they wait in quinquennial queues?

The string quartet in the background is not quiet enough; could you repeat that?
