Why is that
I was told two reasons:
1: Big heat source may raise your fridge's internal temp past the safety point.
2: Cover cools first, creating condensation and a moist environment over the much-longer-to-cool liquid, which in turn favors bacteria growth.
I was told one solution was to break it up into much smaller portions. Food should take no more than two hours to reach fridge temp.
CITWIT does that about sound right?

Is that still true with modern refrigeration?

It's a liquid. How would a moist env. affect anything? I really don't know.
