We did some preliminary work to make this 63 as well (some years ago). I'm glad to see this getting traction. 

I'm generally opposed to hard limits like this. There are many cases where you might want to ring a number of phones at once, and the sizes of those ring groups are currently limited by this. I suspect that once we have > 31 in our production environment, we'll quickly have a case that wants > 63.

But right now, I can only say that we have use cases > 31.
