Som supplement til Heikki betragtninger kan nævnes, at spildkogning giver en 
bedre proteinudskillelse.

That may be so in theory, but in practice all literature recommends a good 
hefty rolling boil. I can think of several reasons for it:
  - It improves circulation, soe more wort gets in contact with the
    hops, and more bitterness gets extracted
  - Some unwanted chemicals will evaporate during the boil. If the boil
    merely simmers, most of the evaporation happens from the top of the
    pot. With a rolling boil, stuff evaporates already at the bottom,
    and gets transported out of the pot with the steam bubbles.
  - As you say, the boiling temperature depends on pressure. There is a
    small hydrostatic pressure difference between the top and bottom of
    the pot. No idea if that makes any difference.
  - A more hefty boil evaporates more water, concentrating the wort.

And a small point: The amount of dissolved sugars do affect teh boiling 
temperature a bit, just like dissolving antifreeze (alcohol or salt) in water 
lowers its freezing point.

Still, no matter how you boil it,

    it will be beer anyway
