This assumption is based on what exactly?
On how much faster 68020+ instructions work performing tasks that need a series of 68000 instructions to normally perform.
Of course that applies on real machines only because on PC based 68K emulators that would be completely pointless (especially given how fast PCs are nowadays) unless of course you want to be able to experiment with 68020+ instructions (a variety of reasons to do that the least of which is plain old curiosity :-) (and that's why I specifically mentioned SGC/Qx0 and QXLs and not emulators)
