According to sibling comments of your own, you're wrong. Humans deliberately solve cubes with the least number of moves and even compete to do so. Generally tho, you're probably correct.

And even in speed solves sometimes a different algorithm (which may be a bit longer/not as convenient to execute) is applied if the solver knows that it will lead to the more favourable position afterwards. E.g. OLL/PLL skips.
