If there is min/maxing to be done then by definition our current practices are not best. They may be (and generally are) good and functional practices but until the research is done we don't know what best practices are or when to apply them.

No.

Best practices explicitly and always refers to currently best available current practices.

On top of that, in the context of a discussion with an explicit goal, best practices would explicitly refer to how to the best practices for achieving that goal, not some other nebulous context of "best" practices.
