How can they send in one chunk if their file size is greater than 32 bit
length, if you limit the size to 32bit?

If you had a typo above and meant that some folks want to send in smaller
chunks than the proposed 64bit, they would still be able to send in any
size chunks regardless how large (and up to the size) we make the maximum
size.
