That looks to be a smoother chalkboard than I’ve ever encountered. If I had been using such chalkboards, I suspect I’d agree, but based purely on my experiences to this point, my opinion has been that chalkboards are significantly better for most art due to finer control and easier and more flexible editing, but whiteboards are better for most teaching purposes (in small or large groups), mostly due to higher contrast. But there’s a lot of variance within both, and placement angles and reflection characteristics matter a lot, as do the specific chalk, markers and ink you use.
