They also recognize that such changes are for the track, and they change
the inflation pressure back before driving home and around town.

Most reduce inflation pressure because of ride quality issues, not any
desire for loss of handling.

Some just refill their trunk!

Yep, seems like it.
 

Obviously there's a bunch of development going in them, and I'd expect
tires built for low resistance to score differently to tires built with
other characteristics in focus.

The tires my car came with are V rated, that's 240 km/h, around 150 mph.
I presume that's not because they'd expect me to drive that fast, but
because they wanted the stiffest possible tire construction for
minimizing rolling resistance.
