Good answer, but there may be one exception. The Matlab function description indicates that it can produce eps files with the cmyk color space, which is indeed something that publishers tend to want, and something that we don't do. Whether Matlab does it well, and whether with some reasonable modification to the mpl ps backend we could do at least as well, I don't know.
