It is not so much how many instances of 'a, 'b and 'c are around - more
that the names of each of these three words count toward the word
limit.
Imagine a spreadsheet where each row label is the name of a word! and
each column represents a context that words can be bound to. A given
word might have a few entries in different columns of the spreadsheet
corresponding to different instances of it in different contexts, but
the number of rows cannot grow beyond 4000 (not sure of correct
number).
Not entirely sure if that helps, but I think it is relevant :^)
