"They've broken the Bekenstein limit."

Isn't it supposed to be Bekenstein's Bound? I know that Bekenstein's bound suggests something similar to what they're saying. However, when speaking of exceeding theoretical maximum space on a "computer" of sorts, mixing Bekenstein's bound and Bremermann's limit just seems like a poor bit of research on Bungie's part. I hadn't noticed this the first time through the game, but I was just pushing out some incomplete story missions on my newbie level 16 Hunter and I thought it sounded wrong. I could very well be blowing it slightly out of proportion, but I honestly believe that it should be "Bekenstein's Bound", or at least not "Bekenstein's limit". Anybody here actually understand computer science? Any thoughts? I'm expecting a lot of "I'm an engineer" kind of people right now... You know who you are. Just... don't. Edit: If they're talking about Bekenstein's bound, they should have said "bound". I never heard anybody call it Bekenstein's limit, as that would create confusion with a similar theory that has to do with computer science specifically. In any case, it's a definite oversight. Edit2: Shit. Sorry, guys. I accidentally put "Bremermann's limit" in the first line instead of Bekenstein's Bound. Mistake on my part. Bremermann's limit was only supposed to show up in the third sentence. My apologies. Sorry for the mix-up. Funny how I pointed out their mistake and made one of my own. Shit.
