In essence, there are good printers and there are crappy printers. Being delta won't make a crappy printer good, or a good printer bad.
This. Except applied to any printer construction and geometry currently out there (excluding the obviously unstable or otherwise bad designs, but those die out naturally anyways).
Deltas do have the advantage of a light actuator, but there are cartesian bots that do too (Ultimaker style designs).
Also, there's more advantages to a light actuator than speed. Acceleration and jerk being one of those (and not because of maximum attainable speed, but because of extruder physics).
