For example, in the Spitfire add on i talked about you only needed to move the throttle about 60-70% of the way in to achieve take off power, maybe even less, because there's enough outside air pressure to give you the manifold pressure you need.
This is true, you can easily take-off with reduced power...but I believe it is always recomended to use full power on take off's. I was tought that way, the idea being that you have a a bit more options in case of trouble. Take offs are the most likely time for a problem to arise due to water, or other factors. You want to have that extra speed/thrust available to you.
