what configuration error could you imagine. In my opinion there is bigger 
change to make a configuration error in more sophisticated config than in 
simple.

and higher chance for security bug in more complex program than in simple.

rshd is damn simple program compared to sshd.


My rule is - if you can do more simple, DO IT more simple.

If this make me "very advanced administrator" it's just a proof that it's 
easy to become advanced administrator, you just have not to repeat blindly
what's said everywhere.
