My tires give me better cornering traction at high inflation pressure. I have several back-road corners that I test daily.

I don't think you'll find anyone advocating running stop signs and lights or tailgating or anything like that. You can get a nice mileage boost by following a truck even 3 seconds back. I generally don't even do that, because the trucks are going too fast to begin with.

You do bring up some good points, but be careful about jumping to conclusions.
