As Kent and others have said, there is something to be said for the additional framework on larger panels, but I suspect you might be focusing a little too much on "flop" over forming.
I visited Kent's shop twice when he was rolling large panels for constructing a staircase.
He used a roller ball table to great effect. It was almost like a strategic war game, fighting it out with the 'enemy'.
I'm still puzzled how he got from where I saw to the end result. It's almost other-worldly, IYKWIM.
I still questioned whether I smelt a tinge of sulfur in the air!
