I don't believe it's nonsense as partial throttle is hard on the ESC. There are reasons why they make different types of ESC's for cars, boats, planes/heli's.
You would be better off gearing down but the EPA is an option, just not the best option.

Higher voltage is always more efficient but you need to have the appropriate wind motor and gearing.
A 5S 4000mAh pack is equivalent to a 4S 5000mAh but the 5S system will run cooler with the appropriate setup
A 6S 3200mAh pack is equivalent to a 4S 5000mAh but the 6S system will run even cooler with the appropriate setup
