Yes and no. In the case of Stravinsky, for instance, there are precise metronome markings put in the music by the composer (moreover, a composer famously gave priority to the printed text). Many musicians, myself included, though, don't stick rigidly to them. The third of the Three Pieces, for example, is very often played faster than notated. It's probably because in some sense, expressive markings can themselves be interpretations of the music, i.e. this arrangement of pitches, rhythms, etc. seem to express x character, and x character, then, comes across best at y tempo. It's probably why most Bach performances gravitate toward particular tempos despite having no metronome markings and often no tempo indications. Again, I think if you're a good musician, you should be engaging with the text, not simply executing it.

there are cases where an auditioner would be wise to play (as if) markings similar to those used by artists sitting at the judge's table...
Sure, but Russianoff is teaching a student, not prepping someone for an audition.
