Assuming we are pressing the throttle down equally as quick in each case, it would take longer to achieve WOT in the stock setting. If this stands to reason then improved throttle response would be the result. Would it not?

No. I can get my foot to the floor in 1/10th of a second (100ms), most of that time is in initiating the movement. At best you are possibly saving 0.01 seconds - not perceptible. I don't doubt that it makes the car feel more responsive in other partial throttle situations, but that is mostly perception - i.e. you got more go from a smaller movement. The problem that people like Digi are talking about isn't going to be fixed by a pedal, it is the ECU programming.
