Higher amp draw does not mean more watts. In fact, the motor draws the most amps when its not moving or stalled, which means its making 0 power and has 0% efficiency. And as you may notice, motors have a limit to the current they can pull.

That is incorrect, motor draws the most amps at startup, and because its pulling high amps and the batterys can deal with the load (no voltage drop) your making the most watts possible getting everything spinning... and for the split second where it is drawing the most amps-dont quote me on this one- but the whole motor wouldnt heat up that fast-making it more efficient.
