I always remember when a shop/mechanic wasn't sure of how the system worked they always replaced the alternator and regulator ,"Just to be safe" That added extra cost and work that was not necessary and today time is $$$.

The same logic apples here regarding lug nuts and bolts. There are folks that get paid a lot of $$$ because of their education and background with metallurgy that come up with these specs and there is a reason for using the specs. If someone wants to stretch the studs on their vehicle by over tightening them , that is their choice.
A lot of us get away with excess tightening and nothing happens. The rotors out there today are not as heavy as the older ones so they do respond quicker to over tightening.

Yeah but I don’t ever recommend 100 ft lbs or above. The highest you can do is 90
 

Yeah but I don’t ever recommend 100 ft lbs or above with small cars. The highest you can do is 95 ft lbs that’s it.

torque lug nuts too tight
 

if you torque the lug nuts way over spec they will snap clean off when you try to loosen them unless you are old school like myself i know how to give them a slight more snug then back them off . torque them at 80 lbs if you like them tight

95 ft.lb. Should keep you safe- 1/2” lug specs are 95-105.

I believe that info is located in your owner's manual under specifications.
