When I look at the graphs, I see a rider deliberately holding cadence to roughly constant, preferred values which forces power to vary linearly in relation to crank torque.
It suggests that being in the right cadence zone has a larger impact on power generation than does crank torque.

I disagree. The second point speaks to the utility of correlation in the context being discussed. The third point speaks to things that may or may not be inferred by the trend of the graphs. The trend exhibited by a data set and that data set's coefficient of correlation or separate things with different potential uses.

Well, how fine of you to inform me of that in such a considerate manner.
Yes, so simple in fact that it's precisely what I said myself in my first point.
Somehow that point is worthwhile for you to make but off target and meaningless for me?

a) Indicate that you feel a contradiction exists and;
b) Reiterate my point #1.
