Maybe in the 60's they were, but they have much more
power now than they did in those days.  (Codd and Date
would give you a more elaborate answer ... ;)

But the optimal choice for any given application
usually depends on a multitude of details, so these
generalizations have limited usefulness.

IOW, this is mainly a techno-religious discussion.  ;)
