Most of the time those limits are important for a specific feature of the motherboard that you might not be using.
For example I recently put 64GB of RAM in a mobo that only supported 32. It didn't work at first and through trial and error I found out that XMP was the only thing with a hard 32GB requirement. Once disabled it booted fine with 64GB.
