There's a default/hard limit of 50 snaps that's maintained for any dir via the definition MAX_SNAPS_PER_PATH = 50 in the source file src/pybind/mgr/snap_schedule/fs/schedule_client.py. Every time the snapshot names are read for pruning, the last thing done is to check the length of the list and keep only MAX_SNAPS_PER_PATH and the rest are pruned. Jakob Haufe has pointed it out correctly.
