Oh, gotcha, that could be poor reading comprehension on my part, too.

Going back to the last page of the 2006 Berto article, it looks like you might get away with using ~58 psi in the rear (that chart is for minimums), and may be able to adjust the front downward for a little more comfort. Even if a rider does have a 35/65 or 40/60 weight distribution on level ground, I prefer to use 45/55 for more balance.
