I know that if you do the low bar cues like sitting back really far, and you have lots of forward lean...while you have the bar high up on the traps...that's tons of stress on your low back.
Think about the length of a lever increasing its power. The length is determined by the bar position, high or low. If it's in high bar position...the lever is longer. If it's in low bar position, it's shorter...closer to the pivot point (around your low back).
When you have more forward lean you do have more torque, but if you're in low bar the lever is also shorter so there's some balance there. I couldn't tell you the math to calculate which one is actually more torque, but in any case everyone's exact measurements are going to be different anyway.
But, if you have a lot of forward lean and you are in high bar...you will certainly increase your risk of back problems.
