That's what I was getting at - it's not necessarily the case.
In my driving environment, I often get better mileage in sub/urban driving vs. the open highway, in a non-hybrid, manual shift car owing to lots of coasting.
So, the lower the RR, the wider that gap becomes (provided I take advantage of the chance to get off the power even sooner and coast even longer).
But for a typical driver in a non-hybrid, non-EV, of course you're right.
