What I'm saying is that his ratio could be skewed if he's half squatting and his squat number is higher than other people squatting to depth would be.
Does half actually mean half? I mean, I am not able to see my hip crease, but if I am not full, it's awful damn close. I have been no repped once, but that was with overhead where I really struggle with keeping my arms locked out. Not once in normal squats. I guess I'll have to start getting someone to check.

Generally, the less depth you get, the more weight you can use. When I was saying half squat, I don't mean there's a cutoff, just that to start with an accurate measure for ratio, squat should be to parallel or below.

If you're good on depth, you know the measure's reliable, so next is to check your physical, mental and technical aspects for flaws.

FWIW, I hadn't considered you might be double overhanding it. If you are, that's going be a huge limiting factor for DL.
