I think 20 is too low. I worked in an environment years ago we had

real problem with the limit of 20, that required reengineering the way
the project was organized. There can be good reasons for using
symlinks, for example imagine many trees of sparsely populated
symlinks pointing at other such trees.
I recommend at least bumping the limit to 32, which is XEmacs'
hardcoded limit.
Nope. If 20 isn't enough you are in big trouble. As I've said, 20 is
not an arbitrary choice, it is what others do.
