Lt tires dissipate heat and can handle 100 plus temps and not blowout, ST tires tend to store heat and even when new will blowout or have blisters develop in high temp summer driving. I have been running LT's here in NM for 3 years with no blowouts. I was using ST's and had at least one blowout every trip in the summer. I carry a compressor and check my tires at every stop. BTW I run within a couple of hundred lbs of the max load rating of my tires. If they are rated for xx lbs they will carry xx lbs, no need for a "margin". Either you trust the rating or you do not.
