After having some cosmetic work done to my Mission E’s, I’m anticipating having to reset the TPMS sensors
Last time I had them reset, I was given the option to choose either Full or Partial load
Is this a common sense option whether it’s just me in the car (partial load) or say 4 people in the car (full load) during the resetting phase or does it mean something different?

I use partial load. Most of my use it is just me and the dog. On my other car when I ran full load pressure with a lightly loaded car the tires started to show wear in the middle of the tread.

Partial load is more than the driver.
No load is the driver only.
Full load is maximum gross vehicle weight.
Partial load is somewhere between the driver and max. gross.
I use 40 psi for all four wheels (Turbo S with 21” wheels) - a close intersection to partial load.
