No, the reasoning is why build it to handle 600% specified load (and higher cost) if 150% specified load is sufficient?

(Not that there aren't good reasons to do this. Especially for public infrastructure which might be around for a shockingly large time. But predicting future usage is very difficult. For a small start-up, it's fair to err on the side of leaner/fix-it later IMO)
