Do you have a reference to qualify your statement, or is it just the calibrated elbow?
Yes, I see you are correct for the hex heads. I only have the SHCS which can handle significantly more.

I also only torque in steel with sufficient length (1.5X diameter), so my figures are going to be higher than any other charts.

You're probably much closer to the mark in aluminum.
