Very, if you have 20K lists.  Hacked the code to allow you to get all
of them, which took forever to load but also was *way* faster to scan
by eye, or search with Ctrl-F for that matter, if you weren't quite
sure of a search term.  The use case was that a lot of those lists
were sequenced (eg, "commits-2022", "commits-2023").  They couldn't
remember the "commits" part, but once they found it paged mode
refreshed a lot faster as they made the changes they wanted to
multiple lists.

Not my problem anymore (and it won't be theirs in this decade,
QA/Security is really tightass there and they have the "unlimited page
length" patch they need), but that use case does exist.

Not sure what harm the extra information does.  If it seems
distracting or ugly where it is, maybe it can be relocated to
someplace on the page where that's less so but you can still find it
if you need it.

I would be more in favor of a larger default (25 or 50, even 100),
although I live in a bandwidth-rich country.  Maybe that's not
feasible in many places.
