| === Scope and collection limits | ||
|
|
||
| You can define 1 custom scope per database with up to 1000 custom collections. | ||
| This limit reflects current {svr} indexing capacity rather than an independently configurable {sgw} setting: {sgw} typically creates around 5 indexes per collection to support mobile replication, and indexing capacity is the constraint that governs how many collections mobile workloads can use. |

I think we should remove the why here. Just state that the current limits are:
- 1 scope per database
- 1000 collections across the cluster
Drop anything mentioning this is down to indexing capacity.

I've updated this, good looking out, thank you!
| === The system collection | ||
|
|
||
| {sgw} uses a reserved system collection, `_system._mobile`, to store its internal metadata separately from user application data. | ||
| This collection is owned by {sgw} and is not a user-configurable scope or collection. |

Given this is an opt in feature to use we should state that here something like "{sgw} uses a reserved system collection, _system._mobile, to store its internal metadata separately from user application data if opted in to do so."
You sort of mention this below in separate paragraph so you could just remove this bit or update it to mention the opt in i'll leave that up to you to see what looks/read best.
