what defines a 3/4 ton?
If it's payload capacity, then why isn't a properly equipped F150 considered a 3/4 ton truck?

That all depends on how realistic one is.
I believe that at some point, most TTs and trucks will be loaded over spec.
Most people will not have a scale handy when they need to load a lot of stuff. Most will just do it, and hope for the best. This is when the heavier duty stuff saves the day(s).
In times past any pickup could be expected to be overloaded, but many nowadays never haul anything in the bed until most would think it is past it's useful life. You are right, with the bed size the same, you are less likely to break the heavier duty full floating axle.
