In a strictly technical / laboratory sense, maybe not.

In every sense they do not.

I also...don't slam on my brakes at a stop light

How you drive under normal conditions has absolutely nothing to do with the capability of the tires in an emergency situation, which occurs regardless of how good or careful you are.

I noticed no appreciable difference in stopping distance

You won't if you don't get out and measure it. But I guarantee it is there regardless. The difference, regardless of how noticeable, can easily mean the difference between life and death, or even crashing at all.
