Well, not really - they don't deal at all with in-ear monitors - which offer many benefits to the home recordist above and beyond over-the-ear headphones. A huge benefit is that proper in-ear-monitors offer much better isolation than any over-the-ear/circumaural headphones, so you can do a better job placing microphones for acoustic instrument recording. Their definition of in-ear monitors is quite weak at best.

That isolation also comes in very handy when mixing as well as when listening in noisy environments like airplanes and trains.

They are much better at multi-purpose use than open backed circumaural phones.
