If you are referring to my proposal then it is not true for intervals 
less than an octave.
What I mean is: As long as your piece have no jumps greater than an 
octave then the new relative-mode is completely down-wards-compatible: 
Anything written in the old mode would mean exactly the same thing in 
the new mode - and hence you wouldn't have to add extra key strokes.
