I'm pretty sure that's only a theory and not something that's ever actually been confirmed. That said people on /r/datahoarder have raved about those drives for 5+ years at this point, and so far all 6 of my drives have been going strong after 6 years of constant abuse.
I can only relay what two server drive experts have explained. 2 of the guys in this podcast make their career on drive setup and performance.

Also, remember when Seagate and WD tried to downplay SMR vs CMR disks in their NAS lineup but end users had their servers kicking out the SMRs from the pool? Sometimes in shucking you might get an SMR drive which sucks.
