This is not yet live on wikidata.org for property search, and rolling it out would break adding new statements for structured data on Wikimedia Commons. Item search already responds with Invalid value for parameter "limit". when requesting wbsearchentities with limit=max, but that didn't cause any issues that we know of.
This was caused by the refactoring around T424817. It surfaced through T427695 which shows that the current Wikibase master breaks WikibaseMediaInfo's statement UI.

[mediawiki/extensions/Wikibase@master] Search: Disable redundant search limit validation
Changing priority to UBN! this since task was added as a train blocker in T423914. I'm currently holding the train.
Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2026-06-02T18:24:59Z] <dancy> Train is blocked at testwikis on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T427935
Given the described scope of the problem (wikidata.org, which is in group1), I will roll the train to group0 now.
