10G ethernet and 802.1q

Hi

Anyone has any idea about this sentence?

" The backbone links between Access switches and core switches will be
provisioned purely as 10 Gigabit Ethernet. That is to say, that the 802.1q
VLAN trunking will not be employed since this protocol is old and does not
support the high bandwidth requirements for new services / applications."

It's from a local Cisco staff, do they have some secrets in 10G Ethernet
links?

Regards
