For some reason, they have more flights (and less expensive) to SAW than IST. Yea it is only an A320, but for a shorter flight I'm sure it is fine.
Doha was built for transit, even though operationally they do throw up unnecessary obstacles. But MCT always was and is still 45mins as far as I know.

Be aware that the Qatar schedule 'randomiser' has not really got its teeth into the Winter timetable yet, dishing out lucky dip schedule changes, so expect some timing changes for November flights, although I can't tell you whether any changes would be in your favour or not, Qatar are quite flexible especially for any change >2hrs which they consider to be in invol change.
