Is it possible to remove longer values for screensaver lock timing?

In other words, instead of forcing a user to have "immediately," give them the choice of only "1 minute" or "immediately"

I think you could only do that via a script that checked on a regular basis that the key is set to one of those two values.

Were you able to find a fix for this?

You cannot remove longer options as that is built into the OS. I wrote a script that says "If longer than X minutes, bring back down to X" which essentially sets a maximum such as OP would like to do. https://github.com/tmhoule/ScreenSaverManagement
