Input shaft has an oil seal so overfill won’t immediately cause leakage and wet clutch…. But regardless it is specified for reason, and I trust Porsche engineers know how fluid sloshes around when the car is in motion… not logical reason to fill to the plug hole.

Because the 5-spd tranny is from Audi, the hole location was not originally designed for Boxster installation thus the height spec., I guess…. It’s not a big deal to check it, if you can bend and mark a paper clip. Can be done faster than typing up a question here.
