I definitely do not agree. It is a well known fact, that sliders are far 
less ergonomic. You can differ a lot more positions on rotary movements 
than on  straigt line formed movements (imagine a car with a fader for 
steering instead a wheel - and imagine the increase of assurance rates 
if every car had a steering fader ;-)).

Sliders may have the advantage of a fast access and a high visuality of 
the selected value, but they are very bad in the detailing of settings.
