I think there could be something to that in theory but what was your condition in those previous marathons? Weren't you under the weather for this one which likely mean it takes more out of you especially with the faster time?

I found my legs worse in Vaporflys than in normal shoes! I never ran a marathon in Alphaflys but found them less stable, but perhaps easier on the legs in 10 mile races.

Until the last few weeks the build up had been pretty good this time so the legs should have been in a good place

I've had perhaps my easiest recovery, off my fastest marathon, in the AF3s. The Alpha uppers seem to agree with my feet better than the Vapors in terms of blisters, but TBF they're both excellent in allowing swift recovery.

I ran in vaporfly and my legs are f*cked! but they were fine after my last one so suspect it's just reflecting the level of effort....
