Arbitrarily Limited Max Stack Size

In Snapshot 24w12a, the max stack size configuration is limited to 99. However, due to the way binary works, this is an arbitrary number. If the number of bits must remain constant, the max should be increased to 128, however, it should be increased further if possible, ideally to either the 32-bit or 64-bit integer limit.

  I think its more because of the decimal system. Maybe three numbers would be too long to display well?

  I don't think so, many Modpacks have ItemStack-Numbers beyond three numbers.. they don't look crappy.

  on GOD.

  i am trying to make a currency within minecraft but the limitations piss me so MUCH. (specially since there aren't really any datapacks or mods that are both compatible with vanilla AND within the server thingy i'm using), the original plan was to make more compact variants of the currency since yk, a stack is limited, but the limit of 99 pissed me off SO MUCH. i couldn't do base 100 and it was SO annoying, i've tried a stack-limit-increaser mod and it actually feels nice to have only 1 currency and just have everything in one slot
  
  honestly i am BEGGING for the limit of items to be comically high (like 32 bit), I DON'T CARE JUST MAKE IT WORK.
  
  (if needed, just crop it up to 3 or 4 numbers/letters max with K and M and B, and then when you hover over the item in your inventory it shows you the precise amount)
