closed system, controlled variables, lower rolling resistance every time for tubeless (see right hand column). It's science, no tube in the way to cause unnecessary resistance = faster.

Better grip, that depends on how you ride em'/rider weight/tire pressure/rim width/etc.
Well you are assuming that the construction of the tire needed to make it tubeless does not add resistance. A tubeless tire is not a regular tire without a tube.
