This limit is constant then? As in, I'll always be safe as long as I chunk
the string into 4064 item sections, coerce each to list individually, then
concatenate the results. I'm curious: is there someplace where limits like
these are set down for reference? The ASLG doesn't seem to cover this sort
of thing (unless it's buried somewhere and I've missed it).

Thanks,
