On new ServiceNow versions, it does not make sense anymore.

The subject field in servicenow can contain variables. Those variables are identified by names and doing so those names have size. A variable name's length does not induce the size of the text inside the variable. Forcing a size of 255 on this field prevent people to use large named variables in the subject. Or force to build the whole subject content in a separated script.
