To stick with the original topic at it's purist. The manual says up to E15 max is fine with the blends as someone else pointed out. Otherwise there would be a lot more issues in general out there if that blend isn't approved.
Just to be clear I was not asking the question to save money. Was wondering if the 94 octane would be better/closer to designed specifications for performance purposes.

Agreed JD. In small town Nebraska you are probably more likely to find a Coop offering ethanol blends than you are to find a station offering premium fuel.

I have 4 gas stations in my town, only one sells 91 octane premium.

In one of the larger central NE towns, I drove to 4 stations before I found one that offered premium but could've bought e15 at two of them.
