100psi is more of a risk than 90psi.
Higher pressure mean the tyres doesn't deformed as much as it should, thus when running over glass, it have no way but dig in the tyres.
Lower pressure mean that when you run over the glass, the tyres deformed enough to reduced the risk of the glass getting embedded in the tyres.
