Simple question on loot

I've turned off biome progression because, lol. Sorry but no, I'm not doing that.

I just want to make sure that loot progression is still active with biome progression disabled. Will I find better loot at in given level in the other biomes? Is the order wasteland > snow > desert > burnt forest > nice forest, from best loo to worst loot, as it was before? Also does anyone have any numbers of what the progression looks like? Is it a linear progression, is it added to the "loot bonus" or some sort of hard floor on loot quality... how does it work, with biome progression turned off?

Yes. It doesn't change loot bonuses if you disable biome hazards. Everything works the same except there isn't a loot cap.

What is the "loot cap"? I think you've answered my question but I'm unsure what loot cap is. Is loot permanently capped in other biomes if you have biome progression turned on?

Yes, if you have biome progression turned on, the maximum loot stage outside the wasteland is capped at a level dependent on the biome (higher for "harder" biomes) and what badges you've earned.
 
At the risk of sounding like Columbo, just to recap, to insure I understand this correctly:
Biome progression OFF: Loot is uncapped, better loot in harder biomes
Biome progression ON: Loot is capped based on some combination of biome and badges, better loot in harder biomes
In both cases: Higher levels lead to higher loot when opening a loot container for first time
Is this correct?
