I thought the main disadvantage was that there are other payloads which can't handle high tables yet. It would be too bad not to be able to boot a Linux kernel directly anymore.
HAVE_HIGH_TABLES doesn't exclude using HAVE_LOW_TABLES. Most tables are copied to both locations if both are active, some (eg. ACPI) use a pointer in low memory that points to high memory in that case.
