Does that mean that it has just been an illusion that I can crank out more rounds with my Dillon 550b than my RCBS jr. all these years? I feel like such a fool.

It depends on how you set up the "race".
If you had a race to load say 20 rounds of X, 20 rounds of Y and 20 rounds of Z. It is possible for a single stage to leave a progressive in the dust.
Some of them, like the co-ax you can change from one caliber to another as fast as you can pick up a die.
Like the last 30 seconds of this video.

Converting from 38 to 44 to 7-08 in under 30 seconds.
However, if you said "get everything ready and just tell me when to start the clock on 100 rounds." You could load 100 on a progressive, stop and have lunch, then go shoot them before the guy using a single stage would be done.
As they are much faster to load with, like this.
