Define "better" -- it sounds to me like you're expecting evidence for a matter which is a subjective preference. I suppose I am evidence that at least one person prefers sport PASM. Shaving a few seconds off a lap around the ring puts the objective difference well into the "doesn't amount to a hill of beans if your name isn't Walter Rohrl" territory, so for us mere mortals we're left just picking the setting we prefer.
I prefer Sport as long as the roads are in decent shape.
Edit: and I absolutely prefer having the option of choice, and do not consider that capability to be a gimmick at all.
The choice that PASM offers you actually limits choice for others.
With PASM, you get Porsche's 2 settings, and that's it. I seriously think that you are the exception and that most people just leave PASM in normal mode, even people like Walter Rohl . . .
For those of us who want something more aggressive, our choices are limited by the PASM system. It is not easy to find suspension alternatives that are compatible. There are plenty of reports of premature shock failure because of aftermarket lowering springs including ones from reputable sources.
It concerns me because even the GT3 has PASM!
I'm glad it suits you fine, but I suspect that most people don't take "advantage" of it, and there are probably as many who like PASM if not more who wish it didn't limit their after market options.
