RFC 4.5.3.1
"Every implementation MUST be able to receive objects of at least these sizes. .... To the maximum extent possible, implementation techniques that impose no limits on the length of these objects should be used."

In other words, just because you _can_ impose the restriction, doesn't mean you _should_.
