Default/Base - 0x8c004800 max (without any features except CSO)
Extended - 0x8c004000 max (CDDA and IRQ only)
Full - 0x8c001100 max (all features)

Any loader can be placed in any high memory of course.
If used Extended with CDDA/IRQ at 0x8c000100 then Heap placed in low memory too. If used CDDA without IRQ then heap placed in high memory at 0x8cfe0000. The full loader always placed Heap at high memory if used CDDA, no matter with IRQ or not.

A general question about memory values for the loader :

from a first look, it seems that the lower the memory value, the better, because it offers more space for the loader.
By this metric, 0x8c000100 being the lowest address should always be preferred (unless specific compatibility issue).

However, your explanation above implies that there might be "some" benefit at selecting a "better" and higher memory address, i.e. 0x8c004800 for "base", 0x8c004000 for "extended" and 0x8c001100 for "full", not just always the lowest possible one.

Which benefit there is ?
