Not really ;-)

Just to clarify: the change I did was for the security-announce list, 
_not_ for this list.

Some security announcement mails are quite big (like it or not), and 
that probably won't change (for example, kernel updates typically come 
with a long list of CVE and bug references).

The main difference is if these bigger mails get sent out via the 
security-announce list instantly (with the increased limit), or if they 
require moderation and get sent out a few days later ;-)
