Fly a Bf 109E7 against a squadron of Spitfire V 1941. Nevermind what our dismissive associate states, see for yourself. Not rocket powered, of course this was overstated, but definitely all Spits are demonstably faster, with higher climbs rates, etc. Try it with other enemy AI aircraft your familiar with.
I don't know how or why multiple opponents would get this "boost" that they wouldn't get in a 1v1. I think it can only be perception; even if you're watching your energy you still have to make more energy-consuming moves than any single opponent, so they end up higher and faster than you. I experience the same thing online, where I know my opponents don't get a performance boost just by being close to each other.
