Dimensionally unstable, hellishly heavy, edges must be sealed to prevent outgassing, and don't even think of getting any moisture near it, it will fall apart! It sucks (up water like a sponge) like crazy. I prefer Baltic birch plywood which I can then edge in any manner I see fit. Doesn't require painting to look nice, finishes nicely and can be stained any finish you want. My 2 cents.
Science is the great antidote to the poison of enthusiasm and superstition.
