I wonder if there is actually a case where there the wheel is rated higher than the tire that is on it - beyond those that get changed around by the owners later.
I thought the second recommendation was interesting. Inflate to 25% over recommended maximum (if your wheels will handle it). Hmmmm, G rated tires would be inflated to 138 (I can't do this because my wheels are only rated to 110psi). E rated tires would need to be stored at 100 psi.
So if they recommend taking the weight off, I wonder if it is better to put the load on the hydraulic leveling system or tires while in storage.
When we had our fifth wheel (had Bigfoot levelers on it), I would manually raise the trailer to point where minimal weight was on the suspension and tires. Trailer also had MorRyde IS, so with the 5 1/2" suspension travel the tires remained in contact with the ground, just with less weight on them.
