The limit was apparently introduced during the initial implementation. It is not clear from the discussion why this was done.
I'm a little surprised that it's in the witness plugin. As I've just seen, it was moved there so that it could be changed by a soft fork.
In any case, it is not sufficient to change the limit in steem-python...
Maybe they wanted to be able to limit the threat easily if it opened some sort of abuse vector. Not sure why they never extended it, though. IMO, a bigger value would almost certainly be an improvement, if we can ever get back to the point of doing soft-forks and hard-forks.
