700 or 512 you mean here?

It is certainly not that. That's the confusion I was trying to clear up in this
note. The system values are _constraints_. It sets an upper bound on the
maximum uclamp_min/max value the system will apply.

For example if a task::uclamp_min=1024 but the system::uclamp_min=512 512, then
effectively the task will only be boosted to 512. Once this restriction is left
by setting system::uclamp_min=1024 again, then the task will get the boost
value it requested.

I'm open to suggestions on how to better explain this..

Thanks
