It doesn't matter where the info came from. You still need a good oil wedge to form and a full width bearing on the thrust side on a street engine. Fully grooved bearings interfere with the oil wedge formation plus the amount of bearing surface is reduced by around 20%. Not a great idea for a street engine. Nascar engines used fully grooved bearings for a while and they rebuilt them after every race. You will not be running at 7000 rpm for 300 miles at a time. You need to build an engine for a particular app, and your app should not use fully grooved bearings.
A half grooved bearing is more than sufficient, especially considering that the rod bearings on a well built moderate performance cleveland street engine don't have any problems when stock crank bearings are used, but if it is going to concern you too much you can run 3/4 grooved bearings if you want.

It also sounds like George Pence said that 114 camshaft lsa was ideal for a mildly built cleveland engine, then later changed his mind and said that less lsa was better.
