Well it’s not as cut & dry as looking at the distance, because it’s relative to your size & specific overall mobility like you were thinking.
Sounds like there may not be room for you to move out much more lifting out of a power rack, & if that is the case moving the bar up a hair is the next move.
Some guys do also tuck their pinkies under the bar to get relief, and that’s probably a better move to try vs keeping thumb over, but it’s all individual. I have never done either of those though.
