The multiple checkboxes are returned to the backend as an integer where each bit is a checkbox. Since JavaScript is used to create the integer from the boxes it is JavaScript which turned out to be able to do this operation with only 10 bits. This is the reason why. Not TYPO3 or MySQL, but JavaScript.
