It seems I should mention something: When filling the system, I
accidentally let the pressure get to about 80 lbs, but *only*
momentarily. The max tank pressure is supposed to be 75 lbs. I know
it's a stretch but any chance the bladder was damaged?

Bingo!

It would not be steam in a residence with that pressure. Now would steam
have an expansion tank anyway.
