I wouldn't say better, more like adequate. I'm sure a lot of people will disagree, but I don't think it's really possible to over stabilize a bullet, within the context of speaking .223's and the twists most commonly associated with them. Barrel quality will have more to do with accuracy than the twist given either 1 in 9 vs 1 in 12, that is unless you decide to shoot a heavier bullet.
Agree on barrel quality. I've had 1:8, 1:9, and 1:12. They've all shot the 55 grain pills that I prefer equally well. If one twist was any better than the other with the bullets I used, I wasn't good enough to tell.
