If the compiler limits are not mentioned in the Reference Manual (and
you should make sure of this first), and you *really* want them to be,
login to Source Forge (register if necessary) and go to
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=5470&atid=105470
and enter a bug report, category Documentation, subject " 'Hidden'
compiler limits" or some such, with Detailed Description something
like:
"
The Reference Manaul does not document several limits on the
complexity of source code.
Suggestion: In section x.y.z Title, after paragraph k, add the
following:
Implementations may explicitly limit the following aspects of source
code complexity: indents, nested parens, etc. . For CPython, check
tokenizer.h <or whatever it is> for your build for specifics.
"
If one of the doc mavens agree with your suggestion, it should get
added, possibly with revision, within a month. (Such has been my
experience with similar suggestions.)
