This is really courageous statement -- unfortunately, I am afraid not
very much correct. Contrary to the original TeX it is still in the
process of development and so there are occassionally some bugs (one
of them causes for example PDF files from pdflatex to be much bigger
than dvips-ps2pdf ones).  Yes, it is much better than other software,
but far from being bugfree.  And no, I do not like dvipdfm (I do not see
any reason why to use it), but if I need small and compact PDF file,
I use dvips-ps2pdf way.
