I doubt users will often reach this limit, but if they do, the message
can be confusing, because MAX_ROOT_IDS also accounts for root_type_ids[]
cells used when we pass map arguments ("key" or "value" or "kv"), so you
could pass 15 "root_id" on the command line and get a message telling
only 16 are supported.

Maybe add a counter to tell how many were defined from the rest of the
command line, and adjust the value in the error message?
