But isn't it easier for a good player to have a bigger win rate and lower variance live?

The bigger the win rate comes with a higher variance level. Which also comes with aggression. It took me awhile to actually grasp that.

Game texture also comes into play. You'll have lower variance in a tighter game than a looser one. The more people see the flop, the higher your winrate will be, but your swings will be bigger.

Yes, this is true and something that I'm just getting used to too. As you move up in limits, the bigger games have more aggression, thus they have more variance.
