However, can you please empirically calculate at what point in any given conditions the very best tires will fail in the event of an unforseen emergency?

I will wait for the answer. I need to know this so I can avoid those situations and remain within the limited safety margin supplied by those better tires.

Being advised on safety by someone who drives his car fast, to me, is somewhat ironic.

It is all simply relative. And I might choose safety, in theory, that comes from remaining within the operational boundaries limited by a far narrower, far higher pressure tire.
