I'm not really saying 10 psi over the rated pressure is dangerous.
I'm saying 60psi on my car would become dangerous - which happens to be 10psi above the tyres' rated pressure.
So :
Increase tyre pressure well beyond car placard rating: Sure !
Stating everyone by default should run 10psi over the sidewall rating : Nope !

Seat of the pants when trying out something around 54-55psi resulting in a rear-end that gets all too tailhappy when the suspension is upset while cornering.

It's empirical.
Tried it and didn't like the effect, which was significant enough to notice.
If my suspension gets renewed, I'll try increasing the pressure again, and see if the bounciness above sidewall max. goes away.
