Ok, that makes sense. 

Now what about weak signals in noise (no QRM): any idea which pitch is
better there? 

And I wonder about keying speed (element length): a shorter element
must carry better at a higher pitch I would think.

Of course, it doesn't matter much if your own ears have a problem with
the theoretical best pitch, i suppose.
