From the description his SLR is not positive for anything others than they are "tight" or restricted in some way. For any generalized opinion about Straight leg raise and it's clinical relevance to say discal pathology the SLR must produce the symptoms in the first 30 degrees, and remember that in fact a crossed SLR (pain on an SLR causing contralateral symptoms) is more positive than those on the ipsilateral side.
I would suggest your point three is more on track however. But hopefully this poster will provide an update and more clarity on their assessment.
