ive never read that. all things ive ever read point to cc being good on gas. as well as personal experience on multiple vehicles. do you have any references? OR, why do they say it's bad?

1 point is
when youre driving, the big and small bumps in the pavement make your foot move, causing you to slightly let off or depress the accelerator, all that starts to add up, which the automotive industry has proven. which is why some newer cars have incorporated a delay when you depress the gas.

but again, i do a lot of highway commuting. 163 to the 8 to get to work, or I5 from sd to LA on the weekends.

i agree shifting below 3k and driving in a higher gear (lower) rpm is good as well, i do both. but im just sticking to the topic of cc.
