This is not specifically true. The biggest advantage to using Endpoints is that you can have more than 200 of them in one TMR, in addition to the smaller footprint. Looking at the big picture, very soon there won't be many things that will need Managed Nodes. There are man services that right now today in Tivoli 3.6 require that Endpoint be installed on the Managed Node.
Still and all, Tivoli rocks, Linux or no. One issue that I'd be concerned about is that while I would like my gateways (technically, gateway proxy hosts) to be appliances, we still have that PC-hardware is hard to manage remotely in the datacenter (the serial-port console issue from the other day).
