This notation has no concept of main and side notes, of the central tones of a phrase and its subdivision and suggests a rigidity of note length and weight not matching the fluid character of chant.
Notation is always an abstraction of a performance. Square notation abstracts in different categories to modern notation. I find it easier to create a performance matching my understanding of chant using square notation.
