I believe we were at the Grandvention ( ;D ) two years ago when we heard that from Michelin and that is the info I recall as well.  Seem to recall a little head scratching as others also thought it was conservative.

I'm at the grand benching two years ago Michelin stated something to the effect that any tire that became deflated more than 20% below the inflation needed for the load that was on the tire should be dismounted and inspected prior to return to service.

It was something about the construction of the tire is different than automobile tires. When under-inflated and driven on, the belts or something cut stuff inside........
