I agree with that.
Those brands provide all the performance that I'll ever need. I'm not one to push tires to their limits and both brands (and similar "adequate" brands) offer more than enough for my style of riding. I've been using Bridgestone's for years and have no complaints whatever.
But this is not to say that from time to time I don't turn up the wick and enjoy a "spirited" ride - knowing full well what my limits are.
As Dirty Harry said, "A man's gotta know his limitations."
