I think that *operating* limits (like "Length of name inputs") SHOULD be 
stated somewhere, maybe in a dedicated page, or wherever they make 
sense. They are useful to evaluate tools, plan your work and understand 
if, when your file shows an error, it is due to mistakes or to a reached 
limit (and maybe why): this is always useful, not just in Blender, imho 
(maybe the program could in that case inform you that you have reached a 
limit, but that's another story).

The "current number of modifiers" is a feature, not a limit, imho
The "bytes used/added" looks more like a somewhat "deep" technical 
insight of the program, not useful to many users, perhaps, but you could 
need to be aware of such details in some cases, ot to completely 
understand inner working of Blender.
