109 can win a turnfight against the Spitfire
Yes, that is correct.

If he breaks off and zooms we don't talk about sustained turn competition anymore.
Sure we are...

The Spitfire has lost and the Bf-109 has used its sustained turn performance to gain advantage and win the dogfight.

There is a very good engineering reason designers have strived for speed as the number one performance parameter for a fighter.
