Low vs High Operating Points

I have heard many posters saying that
lower power operating points sound better
than the "max" operating points.
I was wondering if that had to do with:
1) lower B+ - keeping away from max voltage
2) lower current - lower max dissipation
3) higher Z OPT - flatter load line
Or some combination of the above ?
I am thinking of the 300B for me.
But I have heard that about other tubes as well.
I have not heard this discussed before
and always wondered about it.
