Yes, the stacking of limits really is tightly coupled to device-based influence. Hypothetically some DM target that doesn't remap to any data devices may want to override limits... in practice there isn't a need for this. If that changes we can take action to accommodate it.. but I'm definitely not interested in modifying DM core in this area when there isn't a demonstrated need.
