My iCloud has been full for years, I never got more space. Keeps my newer files safe I guess!

There are 2 iClouds - one where you store your files, and one where Apple stores all the data that it has collected on you from your device.

Create a 5Gb (or whatever the default storage allocation is) file from /dev/zero and max out iCloud.
