The Contis were my second choice after reading Tire Rack reviews... which led me to the Michelins.
Yea and they have a 45k tread wear warranty with them too.

Because they're staggered and cannot be rotated, they cut the mileage warranty in half from what I was told.

The more I drive on the Michelins, the more convinced I am that I made the right choice for performance, noise (or lack thereof) and Michelin's reputation for quality, as I've never owned a car with Michelins before now.

You are correct sir. There is no way to go wrong with Michelin tires or Pirellis. The Continentals with a 540 tread wear can not be beat if doing mostly highway driving.
And I never knew that asymmetrical/unidirectional/staggered tires lose half of their mileage warranty since they can not be rotated. Good info and I'll look into it.
