Also, originally the 100m limit was based on time needed to detect
collisions on a shared link for the smallest possible packet. I.e. the
time to travel down the wire needs to be short enough that both ends
can see every packet in time to detect a collision. I'm not sure if
this a constraint any more with switches - I think it's just about
signal integrity now.
