Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Hi there, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the ticket.

 Previously: [33973] / #34455.

 As noted in comment:2:ticket:33973, site title is stored in a column with
 a size of `LONGTEXT`, so there doesn't appear to be a need for the
 restriction at least from a storage standpoint.

 Since each theme may present the title differently, it's also not quite
 clear what the suggested limit should be, and whether it should be in core
 in the first place.

 If a theme breaks the site UI on the front end because of a site title of
 a particular width, it seems this should be addressed in the theme.
