Did you try this experiment yourself? Did you take before and after dyno measurements? The dyno and the real world do in fact align, and the dyno is a lot more trustworthy than gut feelings. There's more to a dyno than peak numbers, but any change in real-world driving would be reflected in the curves of the relative graphs.

Your statements seem counter-factual to a large body of existing evidence, which means you need to put up some pretty strong counter-evidence...
