+ * - If you're binding N params per 1 value per chunk (for example, if you
+ * have a list of items with GUIDs and parent GUIDs, and you want to bind
+ * both), your chunk length is `variableLimit / N`, since you're binding
+ * two params for each element.
+ * - If you're binding K params per L values per chunk, plus M fixed ones
+ * (for example, `WHERE parentGuid = :parentGuid AND guid IN (?, ?, ...)`),
+ * your chunk length is `variableLimit - M`, to ensure there's space for the
