Well is is more energetically-efficient to browse the classic menu due to
less clicks and also easier return from multiply-folded submenus.
Also there is no need for scrolling because all items are placed compactly.

And yet the usability study performed when the slab style menu was developed
showed the exact opposite of this claim.

In kickoff you cannot see a submenu's content by just passing by. You have to
click,
look in the munu's content (sometimes, scrolling), see that it does not include
what you want,
click back, enter another submenu...

In classical menu you can see the contents of all submenus just by slowly
moving mouse up or down
along a parent menu. All the submenuse will open and close by themselves while
you move the mouse.
