Hi TD-Max,
The law tag lists the materials by weight but because latex weighs much more than polyfoam the percentage of polyfoam based on layer thickness is much more. The Beachside specs are in post #12 here and as you can see it has 3" of polyfoam in the comfort layers which is closer to 25% of the mattress thickness vs 8% of the weight (the type of polyfoam they use is about 1/3 the density of most Dunlop latex).
I am very curious about how your exchange will turn out. In most cases … warranty exchanges end up being denied because the unweighted impressions are not more than the warranty exclusion (usually 1.5" or more) or because of other exclusions that void the warranty (such as a small stain on the mattress). You have been “fortunate” so far and hopefully you will be this time as well.
