The main line runs at a nominal 150 psi, roughly 10 atm. As I understand
it, even if it were at 100% RH, then after it goes through the regulator to
90 psi (~6 atm) and gets warmed back up to room temperature, it should only
be around 60% RH.

That's my attitude. Before, with the little compressor under the bench, I
would get water spitting out the exhaust of my air tools (like the die
grinder). Now I don't. The blast cabinet seems to clog less too (probably
wouldn't clog at all if I would change the glass beads).
But I don't do anything that requires really dry air. And if I do, I can
always add the pickle bucket <g>
