Yes, I had thought of a similar system. While this system may work within the loaded chunks, if the banner protection was so big that it went outside the loaded chunks, there would be no easy way to tell if there was a banner there. Since it seems your main argument for having larger banner sizes is to protect villages, I think there should be an upper limit to the size of banner protection. I think the maximum village size is 165x165 so maybe an upper limit of 180x180 or 200x200 would work well? In order to have this limit be outside the loaded chunks, you would have to use a render distance of less than 6 (very rare to have a render distance this low on servers where this would be important).

And then going back to what I said earlier about 81x81x81 or 93x93x93. With a maximum upper limit, you could expand farther than these numbers horizontally at the cost of vertical height, or vice versa.
