Distal not recommended for BMI greater than 50?

I read an article online that stated for a BMI greater than 50, distal is not as successful and therefore recommended. This seems contrary to everything else I have heard or read. I have heard the more distal = greater malabsorbtion, thus greater opportunity for weight loss with high BMI. What's the truth?
