I think when you're still doing light-ish weight (like too light to be adding ~1 plate per warmup set I guess), it's easy to do too many warm-ups. Like on deadlifts, I was doing something like 155x5, 225x5, 255x5, then 285x5, and got stuck because my grip would be too tired by the time I had the working weight on. Switching to 155x5, 245-265x3 as a warmup made it easy again to continue up to 310 still doing double overhand. OHP also seems to suffer a lot from warmup fatigue. I found that 45,95,135 works better than adding an extra warmup at 110-115, for example. I do x3-4 on all my final warmup sets now since I'm really just using it to get my body ready to expect the weight, so the extra fatigue from x5 seems pointless. Regarding OP though, I think it makes sense to just adjust your warmup sets to make loading plates easy. Like I was planning to bench 205 today, so I did 115,165,205 because I could load 35, 25, 2x10 to make that easy. Maybe it'd be better to do 170 instead of 165, but I don't think warm-ups need to be an exact value. You're just getting used to feeling the weight for the day.
