I could be higher, when I'm struggling with a weight i'm not looking at the exact height of the bar. Still, I don't consider 2 board height the same as of the chest.

Also, I still don't agree on the original statement. Wouldn't shirted benchers be generally weaker of the chest as their lockout strength is way higher then with raw benchers? With the raw benchers the sticky point is more of a result of their training history. I could be off the chest but I could be lockout just as well.
