> allow to select the purchase price within the last 2 years

I don't think that's true. My reading of that is "you lock in the price on your start date and can keep that for the next 2 years going forward". That doesn't help anybody joining at >$1k / share. :D (and that's only ESPP, not standard stock compensation).

Can't speak for NVIDIA but at another company I know they use the lowest price on the last 4 periods (so lowest of 8 timestamps)

ESPP is a very small amount vs RSUs. You’re limited to buying $25,000 per year (that you still have to shell out for even if it’s at a discount) vs just being given several hundred thousand (or more) in RSUs.
