Regardless of it being 1 weight class, 2 or 3 the point is Pacquaio was too small to challenge Floyd. 140 is Pac's limit.

I'm not sure what you mean by ceiling weight, but Pacquiao has been well above 140 for some time. I'm pretty sure that when he was beginning training camp for Cotto at the catchweight, he was already at least 149.
But you can take his word for it:
"This is the last weight division I'm going to fight in and I think my trainer will be happy to hear that because 154 is too big for me and 147 is my regular weight," he said.

If Pacquiao ceiling was 140 why did he force Marquez to fight at WW and give up 5 lbs on the scale

I don't understand your second statement, both Pac and JMM were small guys and not natural welterweights.
