I've wadded through the murky pool of misinformation, interspersed with fact and see this thread has gotten totally off topic. The question was whether a 35 watt amplifier was safe driving 30 watt (rated) loudspeakers.
The match sounds fine to me as the speakers will tell you when the amp is beginning to clip in a gentle, compressive way since we are working here with tubes. Solid-state tells you in a very rude fashion when you have exceeded it's limitations. Think 'brown-out'
Rule of thumb. There is no such thing as too much power (available) only
too little.
BTW: The pile of damaged loudspeakers leads me to ask the question. How many do you need to break before you learn the cause and correct for it. duh!
If you put all the blown speakers in the world in two piles. One burned by too much power and the other pile, too little; the former pile would pale in comparison to the latter.
