How about looking at things from the opposite perspective: does making a clone without doing "Finder copies" exploit features in the Unix core of the Mac OS that are not endorsed by Apple's programming or design guidelines?

I know that measuring the size of every folder on a drive requires looking inside each of them and can take a long time. I suppose checking file modification dates and volume modification dates could create similar problems.
