Remove File-size Upload restrictions on Public Forms
For frustratingly vague, unspecified "security reasons", Public Forms have suffocatingly miniscule file upload limits (20MB per-file, 100MB per form), whereas private forms do not (300MB per-file, 500MB per form):

I'd like the Public Forms to have the same file-size restrictions that Private Forms do.

Meanwhile, popular Form Building competitors impose no such "security" restrictions on file upload limits for public forms:
• PandaDoc (150MB per-file): https://support.pandadoc.com/en/articles/9714591-file-upload-field
• JotForm (1GB per-file): https://www.jotform.com/help/33-changing-the-file-upload-size-limit/#:~:text=The%20maximum%20individual%20file%20size%20allowed%20is%201%20GB%20(1048576%20KB).
⠀
Even more frustratingly, the supposed "20MB per-file, 100MB per form" limitation is inaccurate in practice (at least when using a single file upload field): As seen in my screenshots, the total limit for the entirety of an upload field is 20MB. So the limit is more like "20MB per-file, 20MB per form". Maybe the "100MB per form" factors in if you have multiple "File Upload" fields in the same form, but I don't think I've ever seen a form with more than 1 File Upload field, so that's arguably irrelevant.
⠀
It seems it might be possible to breach this limit in on-premises, but we unfortunately use DocuWare Cloud:
