They probably found it to be so high the lawyers wouldn't allow them to use it

I'll admit that I have raised pressure in my tires 6 PSI over the door sticker's recommended 36 PSI (which has improved FE), but I won't go anywhere near the stated maximum 51 PSI sidewall pressure. I'll put my trust in the engineering team that designed the tire over an anonymous Internet user's "research".

So you DON'T trust the engineering team after all ?
They tested the tyres @ 51 psi - and with a considerable safety margin.
