That was years ago, and is not good advice today.  Propably wasn't good 
advice then, but that depends on "how many years ago"...

With LACP you'll *know* that both ports belong to the same channel on the
other side, and both are ready to be used, not "uh, link up, but line card
crashed" or "this is a multichannel LAG, and one of the chassis' is just
booting and not really participating yet", or such.
