I won't even bother with answering your assumptions, there has been more than enough discussion with more than enough documentation in at least dozens of threads on this site alone. You'll likely find much of the same on any Camaro discussion site. In the first gen. Camaro, if you wanted a quarter mile performer you bought an SS, if you wanted a well rounded corner carver that could still turn respectable 1/4 mile times and showed nothing but tailights to an SS on curves, then you bought a Z/28. So it was buyer's choice, the SS one trick pony or the totally balanced all around performance of the Z/28.
