There are hardcoded limits.

The problem with filling the entire screen is that the console becomes quite slow. This makes doing things like running a full-screen editor or scrolling through logs a bit of a pain. Maybe it is a bit better now that we map the framebuffer in write-combining mode. Also increasing the number of characters beyond what we have now is not going to make it more usable. What we really need is a bigger font for those high-resolution screens.
