No the max t/o weights are obviously different. But nevertheless, the higher TAS are for a lower max T/O weight. One would have to look at TAS over IAS. If anything IAS means nothing in terms of aerodynamics, it's just what the pilot is looking at, and gives him a reference by which to fly the aircraft.
