Also, by limiting this to the fourth round are we concerned that we are adding too much value to the 4th rounders? Last year there were 48 players off the board before the 4th round started.

Well, my thought by limiting the number of players you can place on the Taxi squad in a given year is in direct relation to your second point, a concern of overvaluing 4th round picks. If we had no limits on 4th rounders to the taxi squad, my concern would be creating a situation where teams go all RB in the 4th, looking for that home run. They can place them on the PS for a whole year, and see if they have a chance. If you can only place one per year, then you can't hoard 4th rounders, and stock up on sleeper RBs. That's my thought anyway.
