Time and inflation do weird things with limits.
One of my clients supplies rolls of coins and straps of bills to stores who need them to make change.
When I first wrote the system 15 years ago, the largest denomination bill they wanted was a ten.
Then they wanted twenties, then fifties.
Recently I changed the program to allow them to order hundreds.
I'm embarrassed (a slight change in spelling would describe her too) to say it, but I enjoyed the hound-ette more.
Anyone who does not go overboard- deserves to.
