As opposed to BAD guidance.
When the 6.5 Grendel comes up on a local forum, I mention that the 52,000 psi SAAMI pressure limit is to assure good bolt life in an AR15, even though the cartridge is sometimes loaded hotter in bolt or single shot rifles. I state that it is important to stick to tested loads with AR's. I have also mentioned that with the Grendel and ARC in an AR15, you should not follow the common reloader practice of adding powder until you see pressure signs. Oh, and I steer them to this site.
