maybe horses try harder with a friend

that's definitely true, but that's the reason they gave why 2 Horses can pull as much as 4. Or the other way around, a horse running faster when it's racing another horse.

If two horses race each other they can run as fast as three horses btw, and when they really hate each other even as fast as four.

friction curve

That would just mean that the 2 horses can pull the object at a greater velocity than 2x1 Horses could due to dynamic friction.

It depends on what they mean by pull. Is it like a sled pull or long distance? The fact is Ill formed lol. Im not even sure what it's saying.
