This is one reason why Africans are regarded as block heads and animals.
To them, everything must be this or that. No middle or room for variations.
Why must it be 100 or 200?
What happened to all the figures between them?

And they rejoice that Nasco is going to manufacture biscuits for their children. That is how their heads are collectively messed up from the beginning

Besides this ain't a problem. There's a reason you can 'mute' a group for one year

There should be a way of stopping people from adding you to a group. What's more, when you leave a group, it's announced to all on the group that you've left

From my understanding, Mark Z. just followed the paradigm for the significance of number 256 in the computing world.

See how much important is number 256

One byte is equal to eight bits and has 28 or 256 possible values, counting from 0 to 255.
The number 256 often appears in computer applications (especially on 8-bit systems)

for instance;

The typical number of different values in each color channel of a digital color image
256 values for red
256 values for green
256 values for blue used for 24-bit color (Search Google for color spectrum)

The number of colors available in a GIF or a 256-color (8-bit) bitmap. = 256
The number of characters in extended ASCII[2] and Latin-1. = 256
The number of columns available in a Microsoft Excel worksheet until Excel 2007. = 256
The split-screen level in Pacman, which results from the use of a single byte to store the internal level counter. = 256
A 256-bit integer can represent up to 1.1579209e+77 values.
Number of bits in the SHA-256 cryptographic hash. = 256
The branding number of nVidia's GeForce = 256

And for the last moment, see this
