increase tire pressure for alignment?

1992 W124.

I did 4 wheel alignment at an independent.

After coming back home from the shop,
I checked tire pressure.
I did it after dinner. So I guess the tires cooled.

The tire pressure was 35 ~ 36 for all four wheels.

I was amazed because I adjusted tire pressure to remmended value two weeks ago.

The recommended tire pressure:
at max load
28 front
33 rear,

at normal load
27 front
27 rear.

it takes several hours for the tires to cool and the ambiant temperature may have also played a factor in the pressure variance
