you can bring it in a bit but make sure the FD will be able to adjust inward 
enough to drop the chain into the small ring

Tried measuring a few extra times. Looks to be a little more than 1/4". So 
it seems there's some room to bring the crank closer.

Yeah. It's an MT60 front derailleur. I can manually push it out far enough 
to center over the outer ring. 

When the chain is on the inner ring, I have to adjust the derailleur screw 
quite a bit and the chain almost rubs the cage as though I need to push the 
derailleur further from the seat tube than it can go, which is why my first 
thought is that the bottom bracket spindle is too long.

Can you push the derailer far enough with your hand?

Another possibility: I am using some old Suntour stem-mounted shifters. Is 
it possible they aren't able to pull enough cable to get the derailleur out 
where it needs to go? If I traded them out for newer shifters could that 
make a difference? I don't plan on holding on to this bike for long, so I'm 
okay with used parts. Really just trying to get this thing to shift to the 
big ring.
