Calling On Expert Wheelbuilders

I have a new set of Mavic Open Pro Rims with new Record hubs that are running true to less than .005 laterally and radially. However, after checking all spokes on my rear wheel with my trusty Wheelsmith tensiometer I noted some tensions on a couple of spokes that are low and below minimum to Wheelsmith's conversion chart. Below is a chart that shows what they are and I'd like some expert opinion on it. Mavic Open Pro's need to be 90-110 Kgf on the rear right. We all know the left side will be lower but what is acceptable and am I okay with my findings?
