It's not just shifting. You don't spend a lot of time at the perfect rpm; you're either working up to it or moving past it, which means you're using less than max power. It would be interesting to see 0-60 from a cvt that could hold you at max torque and change ratios to speed the car up as fast as possible without bogging the engine.
