VMAC disadvantages

Hello,

The manual says that:
VMAC minimizes possible traffic outages, during a failover. In addition, G-ARPs for NAT’d IP addresses are no longer needed.
VMAC failover time is shorter than a failover that involves a physical MAC address.

If it's so good, why disabled by default?
What are the disadvantages of VMAC?

Thanks.
