2) Mahle/Porsche CR claims are optimistic, and that measured results will reveal lower numbers.
are both false. I'm completely open to the idea that the common conceptions are incorrect. I't wouldn't be the first time!
Is it certain that the pistons in question are RS, or are they the more recently designed "sport" pistons?

I'm leaning towards some sort of error in my process. I just got another set of "9.5:1" JE's that measure out to be 10.5:1 and I'm really concerned that I'm doing something wrong.
The piston was ID'd by YTNUKLR in this thread:

"Looks like a 2.7 RS factory Mahle to me."
