I guess not! Nor even looked at the tyres to see them bulging in the centre (or not!) It's easier to simply recycle the old 'received wisdom' which, as stated, is no longer true. Radial tyre treads don't deform in that way, instead the sidewalls stiffen up with higher pressures. That is what reduces rolling resistance!
