Sure there are always limits, but if there is one limit applied to about everything, and one single exception, the limit for /did, isn't it worth mentioning in the help for it? As said above, it was mentioned in the version changes for a specific mirc version, but a version change text is not a reference as such. If it mentions a new command then its added to the help too.

It's not that big deal, but think of this: how many people found out the, in the meantime well-known-by-experienced-scripters, pitfalls, the hard way, i.e., weird bugs/behaviour, take for example /var with its behaviour when using constructed (dynamic) variablenames etc?
Why letting people every time go through to "wtf?" debugging etc stage, if such things can be mentioned as notes whatever in the help for the related commands?
Those things exist since long time so they aren't really solvable without giving up backwards compatibility I guess, so why not mention them?
