I would agree with that as being true most of the time but I can site an example to the contrary. I wanted a Model 21 Trap 32" VR for sporting clays as my go to gun. I bought one in 2009, sent it to Pauline Muerrle who executed a #5 engraving pattern on it, sent it to Briley for a set of thin walls. By my reasonably accurate count I am definitely north of 40,000 rounds and will never part with it. I have one other gun that I have added tubes to and one other that I had the chokes opened on. Each one has worked for me and I have no regrets. I do find as the years go by I seem to relish the idea of altering guns less and less. Probably due in part to the fat that I do not mind shooting tight chokes at all. Do what works for you.
