[issue37673] Tkinter won't create 5000 check boxes, stops at 1309.

It stopped at 1309 for me too, running with IDLE, then added 4999 and the quit button, which did not work.  If you can, try to make the code simpler.  Here is one guide.

However, limitations in tcl/tk are out of our control.  So we may close this as 3rd party.  Python also has undocumented limitations, which we close as "won't fix".
