In the sense that the advantages you get from using it could be outweighed by the risks you incur by using it. All else being equal, supermaneuverability is great to have, but when you start looking at design tradeoffs (e.g. canards being great for maneuverability but poor for stealth, the added weight and complecity of TVC) it's not necessarily an advantage.
