I've built and raced on dozens of sets of wheels over the last 20 years , all Mavic and never was taught about using Mavic specs for tension. Mechanic I learned from taught me to try for 100kg range on my Wheelsmith Tensiometer according to the type of spoke. Gage, DB etc.
Never had a wheel failure though I've worn a bunch of rims out.
