This sounds plausible in theory, but have studies actually been done? Could well be similar to golden wires for audiophiles.

I'm not aware of any studies on this, Nvidia did do a study on the effect of sensitivity on aiming [0] but I'm afraid it didn't cover acceleration. Imo it very well could be given how many top aimers and pro players have successfully used configurable mouse acceleration solutions like RawAccel, InterAccel, Povohat's and Quake built-in acceleration. I feel like aiming with acceleration has a steeper learning curve though especially with steeper acceleration curves without an offset, so perhaps I still wouldn't slap default windows acceleration at newer players.
