No, the one thing that some people like to call a 'bug' [1] [2] (allowing state creation not on the initial SYN of the handshake, but on a subsequent packet) typically stalls (window scaled) TCP connections to the point where they have to be re-established, but most people wouldn't describe that as 'dropping throughput'. Unless the poster was rephrasing hearsay for the sake of provokation, I have no idea what he's talking about.
