Game runs smoother if launched directly?

There are claims of significant decrease in lag when launching the game via eu4.exe instead of the paradox launcher. Is there a way to verify this?

Why don't you try it instead of asking other people to do it for you?

I already have. I was wondering if someone with better understanding of software could explain the logic behind it and/or confirm that it's not a psychological bias.

Theres no difference as long as you have the same mods, dlc enabled.
