So is that the limit to how loose or high you can set them?

Very tight footstraps are really not useful, but in Slalom Racing, feet all the way out on the rail they would def. be smaller than for Freeride, Freestyle or Wave. The correct height also depends on the discipline. In Freestyle wyou would adjust your FS even higher but more narrow(most Freestyle Boards already come with more narrow plug positions) so you can actually turn your foot inside the strap to avoid injuries. You keep control with the sides of your FS pressing the sides of your feet. Wave is similar, just not as extreme as in Freestyle. so two fingers inbetween your little, pinky, toe and the footstrap can be good as a max
