Get nodes in Reddit package are being artificially limited

Describe the problem/error/question

The number of results from “Get a user” (reddit package) is being artificially capped by this maxValue of 100 set in 2021. But, there’s a “Return All” flag indicating that having an arbitrarily large number of results is not an issue.

github.com/n8n-io/n8n

packages/nodes-base/nodes/Reddit/UserDescription.ts

115934573


      
          		displayName: 'Limit',
          		name: 'limit',
          		type: 'number',
          		default: 100,
          		description: 'Max number of results to return',
          		typeOptions: {
          			minValue: 1,
          			maxValue: 100,
          		},

This is very similar to this post from 2013 → The GetResponse node is limited to retrieving 100 contacts - #3 by Jon

Also, I would presume this artificial capping is set to other “Get” types of nodes in the reddit package.

To Reproduce

Create a new workflow
Create a “Get a user” node under the Reddit package
Change the “Details” dropdown menu to Overview
Now change the limit field to anything larger than 100
The UI automatically changes it to 100

What is the error message (if any)?
