Meh, there's a certain amount of great divers out there that use them without any problem AFAIK....
In other words: it's the diver, not the gear.
Yeah, it looks slick when the tanks are positive and floating up under the primaries.
They're not so slick when they're negative and hanging down.

Not to say that you cannot rig a 'normal' deco to behave itself when slung with sidemount... but you need to get your attachments set millimetre-perfect.
With sidemount, at least, you have front and rear (or sliding) attachment points on the waist. With backmount, you only have a single waist attachment location - usually centre-side of the torso.... and, as mentioned, you rig your shoulder D-rings higher.
