If a ski boot changes physics, then there is a Nobel Prize awaiting you if you can prove it - unfortunately, it does not. What you are implying by the change of physics idea is that a Ski Boot acts as a 'free' lever. Nothing is free in physics - the 1st Law of Thermodynamics is that energy can neither be created nor destroyed - i.e. the further the ski edge is away from the weight you are trying to move (i.e. the further the fulcrum is away from the weight) the more Force that is required. Using the simple Physics Lever Mechanical Advantage Formula, and comparing the middle of your foot being 32.5mm away (half the width of race ski's 65mm waist) from the fulcrum (ski edge) of a race ski to that of a 100mm width ski, which would be 50mm away from the fulcrum (ski edge), then slightly over 50% more Force is needed on the wider ski. 50% more Force, over and over and over, while you ski, is why on firm groomers, you will get tired more quickly on wider 100mm vs 65mm waisted skis, all things being equal (which they never are but that's the math). Now, force works both ways, once you use the energy to tip the ski on edge of a wider ski, you will have a mechanical advantage potential if you can position your body weight to exploit the longer lever for increased edge grip force - for that, you would obviously need an equally stiff, if not stiffer ski (unlikely to find) so that the ski can transmit this force without flexing and losing the mechanical advantage you gained by using the increased energy to get the ski on edge. As an example for which I'm personally experienced with, the very stiff Nordica Enforcer 88, with 2 sheets of metal, in my opinion, skiing them back to back against my (Volkl Racetigers SL with 68mm waist, Volkl Racetiger GS with 70mm waist or my Blizzard GS with 65mm waist), I would say that on the iciest hardest slopes, that I can actually get more edge grip with the Enforcers - but you absolutely need more energy/ force to get them on edge (formula says approx 1/3rd more force and that is what it actually feels like when skiing).
