No, not at all.
Did the German outfit test Kojaks (and Almotions for that matter) and reach different conclusions on these tires?
The article that was forwarded to me was specifically (and only) about the top five. I researched no further.
Regardless, it seems that tire construction and choice of rubber compound is much more important that tire pressure though it seems generally true that, for the same tire and within a reasonable range, higher pressures generally result in lower rolling resistance than lower pressures. Can we agree on that?
Kinda, sorta, but not really. Rolling resistance alone doesn't necessarily determine speed. Other things factor in. Especially on long rides. Read post number 30 above. Also read the link that was provided in post number 30. I think you'll find it interesting.
