If you got a fatter mid section where the power under the curve was higher and in a broader rpm range, wouldn't you rather have that at the loss of (I'm guessing) only a few HP up top? For road racing who really cares if you lost 5hp from 7k to 7.5k rpm if you got +10 from say 3k to 6500 where the car spends more of it's time.
Yes I would definitely consider this even if there was a peak power loss. I spend most of my time between 4-6k when autocrossing.
