In my experience, this is rarely the case (or at least, the difference
is not large enough to make up for the annoyance of having to deal with
those somewhat arbitrary limits).

This OTOH is the real issue.

FWIW, the specpdl stack does not use the C stack, so I'd be happy to
completely get rid of this `max-specpdl-size` artificial limit (or set
it to a much larger value).

Increasing `max-lisp-eval-depth` is much more delicate.

Indeed, C stack overflows are really nasty (and it's
difficult/impossible to avoid them reliably, sadly, so we're stuck with
conservative approximations like `max-lisp-eval-depth`).
