The practical limits are much more esoteric than Malthus imagined.
First limit: that population limit that some group of people with the power for force their beliefs on everyone else, thinks is ideal. Not like some group, of, oh, let's call them Elites, might decide the limit was radically less than the present population, and plan to use multiple means including mass contagion, war and economic collapse to force depopulation or anything. See: Georgia Guide Stones.
Second limit: The number of people alive at the point when some technological singularity occurs, making 'population' a moot concept.
