Well, the smoothing (loss of details) is obvious when you step through the frames in interleaved mode. It doesn't mean that the compressed version is not pleasant to view, it just looks like a denoised original and loss of details in low contrast areas.
Comparisons with SSIM, PSNR and VMAF have already been posted in doom9, but one has definitely to make his own tests and optimize encoder settings, like constant quality versus constant quantizer etc. for ffmpeg NVEnc or rigaya's NVEncC.
One 'problem' I see with HW encoding is that BD-RB would have to analyze the user's HW in order to suggest the appropriate encoder settings.
