Peter,

is the failure of contributors to state
whether they are talking about peak rpm or peak egt,


I've never seen anyone talking about peak rpm in connection with
ROP/LOP.



I have. Some planes don't have EGT or other decent temp gauges. I used to fly
one like that quite regularly, 172RG IIRC. (My own 172RG had an EGT gauge.)
