I seem to be missing something with your thread depth formula.
The book calls for 1/2 the pitch plus 0.010" thread depth for a ten pitch or coarser thread.
This would be 0.060" for the ten pitch thread.
I understand that you used wires to get the correct pitch diameter but why do you need the
extra 0.010" root clearance?
