POH Power Table MP

A lot of the gauges are.  My oil temp gauge in my M20J was one example, when compared to the temp indicated by the JPI 700

Ok, so I'm thinking of a new way to use the power setting table. Let me know if this is right or some reason not to do it this way. Instead of estimating my density altitude and looking at the row for that altitude in the table, I will look at my max available MP based on full throttle during level off. Then find the highest altitude with that MP listed for the % power I am looking for and adjust RPM based on that.

Am I right that altitude is irrelevant and it's only a matter of what MP is available and matching it to RPM based on that row in the table?

It's the density altitude you are actually looking at
