Question Spinning and T67s

Have read the previous posts on spinning T67s, which has answered most of my questions except one. I guess this is a general question anyway:

The Firefly is known to take a while to recover from a fully developed spin - why is this?

I'm surmising rotational inertia (high aspect and therefore larger distance from the centre of rotation?), relative lack of rudder authority to stop the yaw quickly?

Would be interested in your thoughts.
