Whoever told you this, I would completely ignore in future
Brooklynrider:
I've heard from several reputable sources that wishbones greatly strengthen a frame. Not sure about the whole plate/tube argument but tube should take forces better and be lighter. If you want to build a strong and stiff frame, I'd opt for something with large diameter tubes, gussets, a wishbone (or two), and non-micro dropouts for more weld contact area. Basically build a sunday.

JFax:
If Im not mistaken Mr. French made an article somewhere stating that wishbones are stronger.
I wonder if 3D printed frames could become a thing.
