Your the one trying to argue man. I have grown up in a drag racing family that has been racing competitively for quite a few years in cars and full drag bikes. I spent many weekends at the track watching my crew and many others use this practice to determine what pressure to run on they're full slicks. This may not be your way and I am not saying your way is wrong, I am just simply sharing an idea that I have seen used by many semi-pro teams my father used to race with. Anyone can keep guessing all they want, but its should be simple to understand that if you are wearing the slick evenly then you are getting a better contact which should result in better traction. I'm not claiming to be completely right and a know it all, just sharing past experience.
