Of course it is better to be at 10xBB than 5xBB, but you can't make many plays with 10xBB, so it may not be worth a lot of risk to gain or maintain that stack.

We all know that 10BB is not twice as valuable as 5BB in a tournament due to the decreasing marginal value of chips. Betgo is saying that the difference in EV between the two stacks is even narrower because of playing considerations.
