Not even close. 80% taxes clears 6-9 unrest per turn.

Then set it to 60% for a turn as you rarely get more than 15 points of unrest.

As for the patrolling, the starting troops for most nations can clear the unrest caused by a battle in one turn, so theres no need to set the taxes below 100 at all.

That's still a wasted turn where you aren't getting another province.
