This is a really bad argument, because then the counter-argument is, 
that size = 0 is also a valid size and it shouldn't be conflated with 
SIZE_LIMIT validity.

My take on this is, don't conflate size-limit "enabled/disabled" with 
size-limit "value" , these are two separate config options. Mixing them 
is not helping.
