I think the question you are now asking is does FE improve under lean burn?

yes and no. If you can get away with using less hp then yes, because the engine is burning extra air for "free." If you still need more HP (under acceleration) no it stays the same.

Of course if you are highway cruising at constant speed its going to be advantageous.
