The only time there could be a hint of truth in that myth is if one would compare one large woofer with multiple smaller ones which combined have a similar surface area.

What does produce sloppy bass IME is high excursion which is inevitable with a single 8" sub doing 20Hz even at low levels. For an 8" to do 20Hz at 90dB (which appears to us as loud as 1kHz at 60dB) it has to move 20mm peak to peak. That is a lot!
