It's not the individual 2k which is the problem, it's the fact that (since we are dealing with automation of tasks, messages, and other "stuff") that we could have hundreds or thousands of them existing at any one point in time, and if they were all persistent, (meaning they were the life of the IPL), and there were a looonnnnggg time between IPL's, we could be talking some serious memory drain issues. While this would not actually be "our" fault, providing the easy mechanism for someone to shoot themselves tends to make one look bad.
