FWIW, I thought the 32Kb limit served as a useful
stylistic constraint, as
it encouraged a a measure concision in unwieldy topics. I am going to take
a look at the Bush article in a moment to see what I think of such a long
article.
While the limit is sometimes helpful stylistically, I think it was more
related to the editing limits of certain (now generally obsolete) web
browsers.
