No it doesn't. Corner speed gives you the best turn rate and turn radius, though the turn radius does not get significantly larger until the plane reaches very low speeds. Of course, this is the plane limit. It might be easier for a pilot to fly a tight turn at 3 g's than at 6 g's.

If I take your SR71 example seriously, you might be confusing the effects of different designs with the effects of changing speed.
