These slides fail to mention that the optimized reads statistic is also incremented when smart scans can "optimize IO" by avoiding doing it thanks to storage indexes. So, if your OLTP database has some smart scanning happening in it (usually thanks to various reports, etc) then the optimized reads may be either due to flash cache hits or storage index IO elimination.
