My two cents:

With a sport-tourer you have so much more control of the bike than a cruiser or large bagger.

Most people do not sit on their cruiser/bagger properly for maximum control. Sitting back with your legs stretched-out reduces your ability to maneuver the bike. I realize there will be some who would argue the point, but I would be willing to prove my point with a toe-to-toe contest on a course.

Body position comfort is a personal thing. What feels right to one's neck, back and butt, doesn't for another. That's what the ergonomic product companies love (seats, handlebars, pegs, and etc).

Bike size matters... to anyone based on their size. I ride a very big bike.
I agree 100% with your opinion.
