They're certainly easier to turn than fully sprung cams as evidenced when doing valve checks and turning the cams by hand.

The downside, compared to most car engines for the belts is the heat, speed (up to twice as fast) and, in the case of a 4V the quite severe reverse bend angles over the tensioners.
