Q seems to be a forced conjecture from people who desperately want there to be some historical Jesus behind the gospels. I don't see why it couldn't be that Mark wrote his gospel first and then Matthew copied Mark and added a few more things and then Luke copied them both and added a few of his things.
But then again, maybe Q did exist as from of sayings from Torah and that some people started prescribing those saying to some hypotheticall guy.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
