Low pressure is for kids bikes and child size adults on small rims. Higher is faster.
In a vacuum on perfect surfaces, wholly inaccurate in reality.

remember 25mm and larger tires are oy faster when at equal preassures running lower pressure increases the deflection/contact patch further.
Only comfort bikes and beach cruisers run low pressure
Nope...and for myriad reasons.

Everyone ignores tire construction in these discussions as well...this is a very complex topic. Differences in construction of same type tires can easily account for different levels of deflection in different brands/models of tires for a given size at equal pressure.
