Your tune might vary from someone that's tuned in a different climate, but boost on the same tune doesn't vary that much. Maybe +/- 1 psi going from summer to winter here.
The biggest contributor to load is the MAF values and that has a correlation to boost. You can adjust the load profile however you want but MAF readings and boost for the same turbo will be consistent. So we talk with what makes sense in these scenarios. Because at the end of the day, "175% load" doesn't translate to anything useful in discussion.
