So long as you can see that there is little or no evidence nor reason to quote and re-quote the mantra 'too much grip is bad', then I've done my bit.

Yup, it may be harder to drive a chassis witrh stickier tyres.... but... driven well and with minor adjustments.... it'll be quicker!

The worst that can happen is that, with a chassis set wildly too narrow, a chassis which already has sufficient grip to go past the 'hopping' stage all the way to full 'roll over', then you may get no BENEFIT from grippier tyres. They won't make it slower, though, until the tyres are SO grippy that you get stuck to the floor in the paddock.....

High grip tyres are more physically demanding to drive but they are no more 'difficult' (complex, harder to learn, require more skill) than less grippy tyres. You need all the above 'skills' (and more) to get the BEST from grippy or 'slippy' tyres. You just require higher fitness levels to get the best from grippy tyres.
