Ride Comfort

It has been suggested here, and elsewhere, that manufacturers lean towards ride comfort when making tire pressure recommendations rather than optimum handling and/or tire wear considerations. Any views?

Then why do manufacturers keep putting bigger and bigger wheels on cars, with lower and lower profile tires? If anything, it's a balancing game, trying to get the best of all worlds.
