The more there is grip, indeed, more mass transfer & "ideal" bias is more to front (and vice versa, the less grip, till even something like on gravel road or on ice, "ideal" is closer to 50:50). Aftermarket aero also might be reason for bias change, as it may increase overall grip and also be differently balanced front/rear downforce wise.
Then again, most people daily drive theirs instead of making track-only, and on street rarely someone drives on hoosier track slicks, if nothing else then due their wet grip, need of heatup to working temps and insane wear rate. As for generic case, for most, that mostly drive theirs daily, only fraction of which, only sometimes take it to the track, obviously stock bias fits well most of a time. But those that made their dedicated track car usually are competent enough on wished best setups and may have also brake biasing valve installed. Or in simplest case - use staggered brakepad compounds front-rear.
