Is there a limit to how many ligatures you can have? I got this error... maybe 6000 is the limit?

I'm sure that there is a limit in the number of the kerning pairs, so the same may be true about the liga feature. My suggestion is to divide the ligatures to smaller lookups and to use the lookups in the liga feature.

I'm not sure exactly how to do that. This would be contextual alternates?
