Default Servos

I have been thinking of getting into the giant planes. I am considering the WH Extra LX as my first.

I know digital servos are suggested but why not use high torque or super torque servos? I have seen some MGs that have 120-150 oz of torque. These cost almost half the price of the digitals and you don't have to get a programer for them; just program your radio.

Hitec 705MG is going for $36 at Tower and has 161 oz of torque @ 4.8v and 201 @ 6.0v.

So what is the difference that I don't get?
