Even when GPT (GUID Partition Table, not the slop thing) didn't exist, I never thought I'd need to deal with and handle the limit of a 2 terabyte partition size on an MBR/DOS formatted disk, it just seems such a huge size it would never be a factor. But, here we are, in 2026, and I have had to deal with this exact issue.

What's the deal with Calendar Categories?
Why do all services and applications seem to handle them differently?
This is a general vent of me, working through all these things and trying to find a reasonable solution!

Often, when I'm consulting with a client and a third-party service provider, I may have the need to bring up a security concern which should be considered, or eliminated, surrounding what the third-party service provider aims to implement. This can be met with a defense of "We have always done it this way and not had a problem yet." which drives me insane!
