I understand it as Charles’ Law but, if the temperature is measured, it is possible to ‘correct’ the indicated pressure to that at a nominal 20C. It should really do that as otherwise you would never really know if the tyre pressure was ‘correct’ – under inflated in winter and over inflated in summer.

Yes, but the standard reference temperature is 20C (which is probably what the tyre manufacturer would base it on) so it should use your type 2 otherwise it’s a bit pointless. Standard manufacturer handbook instructions say to measure tyre pressures ‘cold’ so not compensating for temperature could be potentially dangerous. On a very cold winter’s day the tyre pressure might appear to be very low, say 6psi below normal, so the driver inflates the tyre. They then drive a long distance and, in theory, the tyre pressure could then exceed the maximum tyre pressure. As I understand it TPMS don’t warn on over inflation.
