• higher on the upper wing plus profile drag increases.

i think its wrong the lower wing during a turn has bigger angle of attack so the lower wing has more induced drag !!!

As we know upper wing in turn have ailerons down which leads for increase in lift, however induced drag is a lift drag, so higher or upper going wing have more induced drag and profile drag.
