This is silly, of course. People (including randonneurs) have problems with cue sheets too (including this one). The people who said this were staunch "traditionalists" or people who didn't really know how to use the GPS units.
There was a fair amount of resistance of randonneurs to using GPS (partly, because they weren't "technically" allowed). And they invented all sorts of rationalizations of why GPS devices were "bad" and ignoring all the problems with cue sheets.
