have got about 1.5mm of steerer above the step for the 5mm spacer, is that enough

Don't cut more. If the cap is recessed so far into the spacer that it hits the steerer, use more spacers rather than cutting the steerer even shorter. Or use one of my top caps #spam

I've explained poorly then. The issue is there's a 4mm gap between the top of the steerer and the top of the spacer.
Does that make sense?
Edit: the 5mm spacer above the stem*

No, I've read poorly.

Yes, 1.5mm of steerer poking out of the top of the stem is enough. I target 2.0mm just because that's what my caps are designed for, but you're already into the region of rapidly diminishing returns after you're past 1mm
