you forgot to take a few variables into your calculation. The weight loss of the eggs is due to moisture loss which in turn results in higher humidity. Also air speed changes the results as faster air flow helps to turn moisture into humidity so the eggs are loosing moisture at a faster rate.
most of us don't care about humidity as its a rough guide to get us to the first weighing/canderling personally 28 would not be a starting point I would be happy with as I prefer 35 for a relative dry hatch especially in a forced air incubator so I would have added a small container of water.
From a purely scientific approach you would have to run the numbers with no eggs in the incubator and the incubator sealed in a plastic bag
