Do you have a source? I did find reports saying that it was limited to 100 during the beta but that the limit has since been lifted. People are claiming almost 350 addresses with no cap.

It’s been at least a year or so since I read that, so it’s very possible that it’s changed.

As is typical Apple fashion, it’s not documented anywhere that’s easy to find.

I agree Apple’s documentation is terrible, but if there is no limit (any more) then there would little reason to document that.

Indeed, if there's no limit, you probably want to not document it, lest you tempt someone with too much time on their hands to test if unlimited really means unlimited.
