Why do we limit print-length in batch mode? In interactive session,
one can click or type RET on the ellipsis and get it expanded, but no
such joy in batch. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2021-10/msg00395.html
for how that makes debugging more difficult than it has to be.
So how about using huge values in batch? Are there any downsides?
