Merge Request Diff View limited to only 137 files - an arbitrary and insufficient limit, that results in files being missed during review

Recently, and I'm not sure when, GitLab MR diff view started limiting the number of files shown to 137:

"For a faster browsing experience" - ORLY?

This is nonsense - there was no performance issue when viewing with "Show one file at a time" even with several hundred files, even if the Files list did get a bit long.

On self-hosted instances, the docs say the limit is 1,000 files, so why is it only a measly 137 on the SaaS product? Did this change recently?

The worst part about this is that the Files tree (or list) view of modified files is incomplete. This makes it really easy for reviewers to miss changes to important files if they "fall off" the list and aren't displayed. Now a reviewer must use the Patch or Plain Diff buttons to check if any files of interest have been modified, and there's no way I can see to make inline comments on those files that have been trimmed from the Files tree (or list).
