Comment (by costdev):

 @taupecat I agree - it isn't clear why the reduction from 100 characters
 to 20 was committed when it yielded no performance benefits, and you're
 right, it seems this is less a case of anyone justifying a higher
 character limit and more about someone justifying the status quo.
