I haven't thoroughly tested this, but if you set iG to be the movement
parameters columns. Then still adjust for the null space (motion
parameters). You will get the best of both. If you don't adjust for
the null space, then movement will contribute to the deconvolution. In
summary, if you have iG be the motion parameter columns AND adjust for
the null-space (motion columns), then:

Y will have the effect of motion removed. Yc (removal of motion twice)
will be minimally different since Y is orthogonal to the motion
parameters. So, you have motion removed from both the autocorrelation
estimate, the Y for deconvolution, and Yc.

I think it would make sense if the motion regressors did not go into this test, just like the DCS HP-filter does not go into the F-contrast.
