The main disadvantage I have with a big front rack is that it stiffen the front end significantly, not massively so but can felt a little more vibration on your hands (experience with Surly Nice Rack).
Having a porteur rack mounted halfway the fork legs prevent it from stiffen it up too much, ditto to the low rider.
