Higher octane and more timing can make more power so hypothetically if the engine's computer is able to advance timing without pinging it can make more power without having higher compression.
That being said I lm I'm trying to figure out if ethanol free 93 is better than 93 with 10% lethanol. I'm tracking the next few tanks of ethanol free to see if there is an increase in mileage and power.

It's also recommended that you not fill up when the delivery tanker is hooked to the underground tanks. Seems if they pump the gas into it, it disturbs the sediment and you may pump debris into your tank. I only had occasion to fill up when the tanker truck was there and had to run my tank empty on bad gas for a tankful. It was not fun. 200 miles. Speedway gas station. GL1800 GoldWing.

every answer here will be a little different but all good info. I found as long as you don't use diesel your spyder will start.

I have noticed if I fill up with 90 octane, my Spyder (2019 RTL) will spark knock just a couple times when accelerating from a stop. With 93 octane I don't think it does. I'm rechecking my memory now. Last time I filled up they had 90 octane super and I am spark knocking from a stop. I will try to find a 93 octane station next time to see if it goes away.
