I feel that this is a rather gross (and misleading) generalization.
There are certainly circumstances where merely bolting on a larger MAF
with little thought will result in poor throttle response.  But that
won't be a problem in a well thought out solution.

The 4.6L DOHC in the Mark VIII has a 80 mm MAF from the factory.  This is
obviously a car where idle quality is a big concern.

Since few people can program the EEC, you may have the tweak the
signal it sees from the MAF for certain combinations.

Several of my friends have installed that MAF on their 5.0's with
excellent results.  You'd be surprised at just how large the MAF's and
TB's on the next generation of lower displacement V8's are.
