Well, that's a bit of an over statement. AFAIK, you won't be able
to run SCSI/ethernet bridges, SCSI video adapters, and probably
not SCSI scanners either. And I have the nasty feeling that I'm
forgetting stuff on that list.
Plus it's still hard to run Mac software on a IIGS. :)
What you CAN do however, and you can do this with a CF too, with the
proper adapter, is get into GS/OS and then view a Mac HFS volume. you may
not be able to run software from one to the other, but it does make
sneakernetting files from one to the other for storage purposes possible.
