Make a schedule job trig the restriction and observe the correctness of the log in the Scheduler console.
Configure a restriction down to -15 degrees and observe as Scheduler properly honors the limit.

Better than the rather arbitrary limit of 15. But why -15 and not -90? And what about changing the maximum to 90 instead of 89.9?

I had the same reflection. Why -15 and not -90: I don't even know why it was 15 in the first place, so my change is the minus sign. It would take a high and isolated place to require a restriction under -15 degrees.
For 90 instead of 89.9 I think 90 is taboo in altaz/radec conversions because of the indefinite value of the azimuth. On the other hand, -90 is used for coherence with "no altitude restriction" in XML files. But agreed, there's no particular other justification.
