I think it's probably for links as you said, though possibly for larger 
AA like these:
- https://randomcrapmuseum.neocities.org/exhibits/ayashii/fansite/genealogy
- https://randomcrapmuseum.neocities.org/exhibits/ayashii/fansite/starchart
- https://randomcrapmuseum.neocities.org/exhibits/ayashii/fansite/agstarmap

(translation and colorization by me ヽ(´ー`)ノ)

Regarding why it was increased here: when this board was first 
launched, nobody knew anything about this software nor Ayashii World, 
and the UI was only partially translated (and quite poorly in places) - 
complaints quickly came in that long posts weren't going through, so 
kuz simply increased the characters-per-line limit and it's been that 
way ever since

I think it was at a later date when we realized you're supposed to 
preformat your posts, Usenet style ヽ(´ー`)ノ
