That's not very scientific. How is it more difficult for the engine at 2000RPM in 6th gear than 4500RPM in 6th gear, other than at the higher speed there is even more friction to overcome in the engine and from the air resistance of the car moving forward??
If the car couldn't adjust timing or fuel and was detonating before TDC, I can see that being real bad... maybe that's what happened in the good ol' days.
So I can see WOT at 1800RPM not being very exciting, but I don't see how it is bad.
