Music Disc length having a hard coded limit should be reverted

I'm not sure exactly what the reason was for this change but I recall it being fairly recent (post caves and cliffs.) It used to be that resource packs could make music discs any song of any length with no issue, but I remember when playing a new version that suddenly, a few of my custom tracks were being cut off at the same time as what would've played in vanilla.
Maybe it happened because of the music note particles needing to be synced server-side? Whatever the reason was for its initial implementation, I feel that it should be made possible again to have custom music disc tracks of any length, irregardless of whether music particles sync up or not (assuming that's the cause.)

  I agree, I love putting songs I like into the game and it sucks that they have to be specific lengths

  Using a datapack, you can change the music disc lengths (that also further proves your theory of the particles being synced to the server!)
