I'm sure that is true. Possibly because the people with experience of this come from a different community (established consumer electronics) than some of the new people coming onto hardware via the startup scene.
Bunnie Huang recently wrote a series of detailed blog posts about how to take prototypes to manufacturing in China. There is a lot of hard-won knowledge in them.
