Heat Deflection- PCTG

Heat deflection is a big factor in selecting a filament, at least for me. PCTG is a bit higher, I think, than PETG, but not a lot. Then I saw the table from Push Plastics- https://www.pushplastic.com/pages/learn

Just scroll down a bit for the heat deflection graphic. Can this possibly be right? Are some of the materials filled and they forgot to mention it? What do people that likely know more than I do, think?

No. Definitely not. PCTG has a glass transition of 84°. Most vendors I'm aware of quote a heat deflection something around 75° on force and 65° on a heavier force. 

My guess is whomever did the chart confused it with PC.
