In general I don't see a reason to not increase the value (while not having checked the code). Likely the memory consumption will increase with larger moving window sizes. Furthermore an "unlimited" size is probably geomorphometrical nonsense, but I see that 69 is an arbitrary. Did you actually try in your local installation a larger size?
