No i never said that. To me the ideal console is a combination of the right features and sonics. The summing section of a console is one small proponent which i rarely ever notice only when summing a large number of inputs. Then it becomes more of a headroom issue than anything.
ITB summing is fine to me especially considering the fact that alot of times you are summing so many tracks and inputs that most consoles couldn't handle. Also the features/routing options are there and you have the benefit of the recall. My one caveat is the sound or lack their of on DAW mixers. They are very much on the sterile side which when mixing can make your job much harder because you have to use more processing than necessary to give it a vibe. In the end your sound can start to suffer...there is a processing breaking point or point of negative returns.
