I don't think the statement is unilaterally true. I think it depends
on the application/use of the prototype and the target RP machine upon
which the prototype will be built. The problem with contoured formats
is that they pretty much enforce a given layer thickness when it comes
time to build a prototype.
Without starting a flame war as to which is the better format, I'm
sure others in the group will be happy to elaborate further :-)
