Looks about right. I’m old and just like the baked potato with copious amounts of butter and black pepper. I do like the oiled and salted skin. 
Strip loin steak be nice

Yeah, me too.

The key trick is to pull it just below 212F.

That way its nice & fluffy.

212F and above, the internal moisture boils & turns the innards gummy.

I don't wrap in foil because I like a crispy skin.

I pull it to oil & salt it when it's at an internal temp. of 205F, then put return to bake until 210F

That way the oil crisps the skin instead of soaking into the tater & making the skin chewy when you apply it at the beginning.

Just stick the probe right in the tater hole, & good times happen!

It's cooking, so how hot & for how long makes the difference between undesirable & tasty.

For a tater, between undercooked & tough, proper temperature fluffy, and a couple degrees too hot & gooey.

Temperature of oven, too.

Many people unknowingly cook at the wrong temperature in the oven, because they haven't checked the accuracy of the oven temperature setting/dial.

Can be frustrating to put in the work & fail because the oven is lying to you.

The infrared laser thermometer gun is high tech.  First day it arrived, I walked around measuring the temperature of everything: The living room wall, down my pants, frying pan for best temp for burgers, eggs, etc....my cat's butthole (92F), oven back wall, components in my computer, etc.

That, & a scale for measuring ingredients by weight instead of volume (especially flour for baking) makes a huge difference in quality of results.
