I agree with you 200%.

The late '98 70 series with the mechanical tensioner, should go to the 105K miles interval like the '99 and newer volvos.

The KEY here is that the t-belt should be inspected at 70K miles and if it looks worned and with a few cracks, then replace, BUT if the belt looks good, inspect every 10K miles and replace accordingly.

I plan on replacing mine at 95K miles. An inspection will be done at 85K in the next 3K miles and I'll replace then if in doubt.
