Why then does the p47 D have a supercharger lever in the throttle quadrant that never moves?

I have flown the jug at high altitude a ton... just tonight I was at 35k feet and was not able to attain anymore than 30 inches of MP. That was with a leaned pitch setting to about 80%. I even tried it at max RPM and it didnt help.

That's more or less how it works actually. You were getting sea-level manifold pressure at 35k feet, so it's not bad at all
I think this is the so called critical altitude, an altitude that when exceeding it the engine can't maintain sea-level pressure values anymore.

Edit: Seems Azimech beat me to it
