I’d say running up against a 16bit number for a database import in 2025 is a little cursed. MS is special, still has a 260 path character limit (albiet soft now) in Windows.
Also with more phones taking an image and a video that is only 32767 snaps, which is probably a regular headache for initial imports.
And, if your trying to get around geo fencing, one that doesn’t openly share their IP ranges.
