Any evidence of this assertion ?

You should try QNX.
My experience with QNX shows that it is far more stable than monolithic 
kernels since buggy drivers can't cause the kernel to panic.
Also, you don't have to recompile the kernel each time a driver needs to 
be recompiled.
I have many other arguments against monolithic kernels.
