Comment (by pikamander2):

 It looks like Gutenberg limits it to 20:

     /wp-
 json/wp/v2/tags?context=view&per_page=20&orderby=count&order=desc&_fields=id%2Cname&search=a%20t&_locale=user

 While the Classic Editor has no limit:

     /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=ajax-tag-
 search&tax=post_tag&q=the&_fs_blog_admin=true

 Would it be possible to limit the Classic Editor to 20 as well, either by
 default or at least with a filter?
