It's not just about the polly count. Messy models have irregular geometry, holes, intersections, floating faces, incomprehensible and wasteful UV layouts, unwelded edges and the mesh is denser where there is more noise instead of being denser where more detail is needed. They are a nightmare to repair as well.
