The amount of typos on that website disappoints me...if you're gonna try and rip people off with your shitty dropshipped shin pads (which are not a new thing lmao), you could at least put 30s into making sure you've spelled everything correctly.

Booster strap inside shell against your liner and use laces if possible. If your calf still moves in your liner/ cuff then you fucked up and bought the wrong boot for you. No, I can’t tell you the right one but any good bootfitter can. Rei or evo do not count.

This is the only answer, Booster Strap between the liner and plastic cinched down as much as possible. I am in the skinny calf militia and have struggled with this before and this method really helps.
I have a cuff spoiler on the back and a ~4mm thick piece of foam on the tongue of my Zipfits (yes, I've pumped cork in there but this is a more economical volume reduction solution given the cost of those tubes) and run the booster underneath the plastic of my boot (Lupo HD for anyone curious) it's easier on a 3-piece but works just as well on a two-piece.
Don't be afraid to get calf volume taken up by foam and spoilers too though, calf raises only get you so far...
That said, if the boot aint right, you'll only get so far with these mods.

SEE A BOOTFITTER.
Sometimes I feel scammed by Zipfit due to their cork tubes being so expensive. They make the idea sound so good, then boom you have to drop $40-70 more after already buying the most expensive liner ever

I can agree with you hear, I definitely spent a good few $$$ on a bunch of cork when I bought my liners. I do have about 2x full tubes still though, I guess the rationale is that you can get 1000 days on a liner so $40 here and there every couple hundred days is way cheaper than a new boot/liner.
It's a fair call though, and it's why I went for foam over cork for the tongues, you don't need much to take up volume in the heel pockets but if you're calf deficient like me you could spend way too much filling the tongues with the cork.
Zippies are VERY expensive but they're also the best liner I've ever had...
