I would say there are two issues that are very different:

* Some simulations desire a vast amount of open space that is not
economical when sims are always 256m x 256m.

* There is a (possibly great) demand for inexpensive, smaller private sims.

Those are really marketing and product issues. But technical
assumptions and limits are always present. Learning a little about
those assumptions and limits was the reason I started the thread, and
I appreciate the answers to those questions as well as the discussion
that resulted.
