Not true at all - L-1 is capped at 6-7 years on that status, and is a more expensive and time consuming process. TN can transfer to green card and never expires and is faster and cheaper and easier. DM me if you want help looking at TN

with l1 you can apply for green card right away, however you are also stuck with the company that sponsored you

Until the EAD from green card is granted. Can be 3-24 months from the I-140 approval.

Speak to a lawyer. People have said you can get grewncard from TN (just harder). You have to jump through a few hoops.
