I have been on a brulosophy reading kick lately (see my other comment in another post about ferm temp lol).
This exbeeriment is perfect for this thread. It is exactly what you are looking at.

34/70 yeast fermented at 50° and 70°. 26 people tested, 13 need to determine the higher temp beer to be statistically significant. Only 12 could. Still a good amount but it shows that even at 20° higher, you will still make a great lager.
Edit: I should state that this was a one time test. If done multiple times with different testers, the results may differ. Still a good practice to ferment in the temp range of the yeast but if you don't, as long as your brew process is spot on and you use the right amount of healthy yeast, you will make great beer.
