It's just not as robust as other apps in the modeling dept. It has all the standard tools to get a job done but while other apps continue to refine their modeling tools and modeling workflows to make things faster and easier, Maya's improvements with each release lie more in the rigging/animation pipeline so folks are stuck using tools that don't always work as they should. The best way to see the difference is to spend some time with MAX or Modo or something.
