Comment (by mensmaximus):

 I would like to throw an other aspect into the discussion. How usefull can
 it be to set WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT to 256M by default if the allocated
 memory ( ini_get( 'memory_limit' ) ) is less than 256M? What would happen
 if a plugin developer would rely on the constants value and this value
 exceeds the memory allocated by the server (and restricted by the hosting
 company)? Imho the WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT constant should never report a
 larger amount of memory than the maximum allocatable memory.
