Why? Both JSON strings and their deserialized value's memory usage grows only linearly if you nest stuff (unless you're doing something dumb). By that logic they should also add -MaxArrayLength to make the parser stop parsing long JSON arrays, -MaxProperties to make it only parse object properties up to a limit, -MaxStringLength to only make it parser strings up to a certain length... It's completely pointless.
