That's because people say silly things like this:

As far as strokers though, it may or may not be folklore, but without a compelling reason and/or a Dart block, I will stay away from the big 427W stroker in the stock blocks. Plenty of horsepower to be made in the 393 and 408 stokers without the issues.

I've done somewhere around 600 of these a year...since 1995 (or so) and have never seen any reason to not use them. While the 427 is not my personal preference there is no reason to avoid them.
....then again...other than the original low cost of the 393, which was great for the consumer, I don't much see the point in that either.
