If it is , it is not going to consume the 10 HP under all conditions .
So it would not be a strict rule ( the loss).

In the OP you were talking about drivetrain loss. The power a turbo uses is accounted for at the crankshaft.
No, a drivetrain is not always going to consume exactly 10% of an engine's output. It could be more, it could be less. Depends on the drivetrain.
