ESRI time-waster #940267

Hey ESRI: Thanks. Thanks for letting me name a feature class with a 47-character name, and for letting me include it in a topology, and for then giving me a useless "Failed to create new feature. The table already exists. Invalid argument." error when I try to make edits, until I finally figure out it is because 47 characters is actually too long, sort of. Rename it to a shorter name and it works. Why not JUST ENFORCE A UNIFORM CHARACTER LIMIT ACROSS THE BOARD FROM THE OUTSET?

Thanks again. Really.
