My point is that if you made Elon CEO of Cisco, he could make e-mail addresses longer than 8 chars within a week.

I know it isn't a simple as editing a config file that has "MAX_CHARS=8". It is going to break some peoples' spreadsheets and processes, but the world will not end, and the company will not go bankrupt because of that change.

I think you're really under-estimating the difficulty of changing these kinds of things but if Elon buys Twitter we'll both see soon!
