2" spindle travel doesn't preclude me from working deeper does it? I can always just lower the head, no?

It depends on what sort of accuracy you need. If you need to bore or drill a 3" deep hole you would have to bore/drill 2" and then lower the head and lock it and then finish up the last 1". There's always going to be a tolerance involved when you lower the head and lock it and start re-boring/re-drilling. If you can live with that tolerance then it shouldn't be a problem.
