50 - 55 mm is a HUGELY WIDE tire. 10mm wider than a 42mm. If someone
who is MASSIVELY heavier can ride a 42mm tire inflated to 50-55 psi in
comfort, never getting pinch flats, there is simply no way no how that
that same pressure in a tire 1 cm wider and a rider who is DRAMATICALLY
lighter will be OK.

Well I'm going to disagree to a degree. For the mostly smooth terrain Leah
rides and the Killer Hill™ she climbs to get home, I can't see 30-40 psi being
anything but drag for her. She can certainly experiment with pressures and 55
may be a bit much, but she's not riding terrible roads and dirt.
