The biggest issue with stick framing is the building envelope. It's very sensitive to the quality of the air/water barrier. Lots of subpar contractors around that don't care about taping together different pieces of house wrap, covering fastener and conduit holes, taping the window and door apertures correctly. You end up with moisture inside your walls and thermal losses that are annoying to diagnose and even more annoying to fix.
