It was more from my perspective that I would just declare SETTINGS_NUM_PLACEHOLDER to be something relatively large each time (e.g., 100+) and then just lazy-initialize as needed, to allow the client as much leeway as possible. If I actually have to create those 100+ up-front, I'm much less likely to allow that many placeholders, hence clients with complex setups might run into problems.
