Hole spacing on lower priced racks is generally less than ideal, so that’s likely the big issue. One option would be to buy safety straps that fit your rack and arrange them higher on the head side so the bar would drift downward if you lost one…

This is the answer. Straps are so much more versatile for every lift. If your chest is out you can still touch your chest during the rep but fail without it touching your chest. Hard to explain until you just try it

In addition to safety straps, you might be able to get spotter arms that are offset a bit from the holes. A ghetto solution is to put down some bumpers where your feet go if you raised the bench up on boards.
