DSE Graph - Do vertices with meta-properties require more than a single query to read?

The 5.1.3 doc says

Vertices without multi-properties fetch all properties in a single query, rather than requesting properties one at a time. Using multi-properties as vertices is not recommended.

Is that true for meta-properties as well? In other words, are multiple queries needed to fetch vertices that have meta-properties or can a single query suffice?

Meta-properties are fine. The issue with multi-properties is that we can't have a good idea if an element is small or large. So fetching everything could be expensive.
