Thanks for adding "usually" to your original statement.
I was just pointing out that if the FM peak deviation
is equal to the maximum modulation frequency, then the
FM signal occupies the same bandwidth as AM. The S/N
ratio advantage usually enjoyed by FM over AM occurs
when the FM peak deviation is *greater than* the maximum
modulation frequency. FM seems to have been the original
"spread spectrum" mode. :-)
