Is a higher TT GVWR better?

YES
I used that criteria to find my current trailer , purchased new 12 years ago .
it has a 7280 # GVW on the axles but was placarded 4900 # empty on the axles .
It came with a 6 inch tall frame not a 5 or 4 inch .
It is a 21T Komfort .
Empty weight on the tongue is 480 # .
The 50 gallon water tank is in the front as is a huge storage space under the walk around bed .
I frequently have 900 + pounds on the tongue .
It tows wonderfully because I have the capacity to put heavy stuff in front .
Heavy stuff behind the trailer axle is uncontrolled weight and adds to sway .
Heavy stuff in front of the trailer axle mitigates sway .
The same thing applies to tow vehicles .
The best F150 is not as good as the worst F250 for towing .

I think me and JJBIRISH are on the same page. Maybe a little different semantically but close.

I was using the truck example just for illustration purposes, not what can tow more. I still read the question: two vehicles the same approximate actual weight but different GVWR which is safer?

So take a loaded half ton crew cab and a single cab bare bones one ton truck. Curb weight close to each other but the one ton has a much higher GVWR. So you are saying the one ton in this scenario is statistically safer than the half ton. We are not talking towing or loading anything more then what the original question posed.

Who cares what the "safety margin" is, they are both safe.
