As expected the author stopped writing the population limit. Most authors of game novels do the same thing omitting certain stats and updating MC stats less often as the story goes on, they do it to not restrict themeselves giving them more ******* in writing and they also don't want to suddenly get stuck at a certain point in the story because whatever they planned now can't happen because of the limits or the numbers they wrote previously, so they either change the story line to fit or BS their way through with "lucky situations".
