Increase section limit from a 100 to 500 000

Description

We have over 200 very critical reports that cannot be filtered down to get lower number of sections and the reports cannot be repurposed with best practices in mind from Doc ID 2596246.1 (https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?_afrLoop=397322592882569&parent=EXTERNAL_SEARCH&sourceId=HOWTO&id=2596246.1&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=w4vqlxjxr_154)

Use Case and Business Need

We have over 200 reports results of which are broken down into sections in order to compare sales,cost,units etc per item category.The reports have a direct impact on our revenue, sales margin estimates for our business, and so are very critical.
Since the reports are erroring in OAC, this means we will have to look for alternative reporting elsewhere so our business executives can get the KPI's that they need to make informed business decisions.
Since the reports are throwing erros in OAC, this is delaying us from going live in OAC whilst, and we don not have any workarounds.
If we break down the report into smaller pieces, it is taking almost an hour to run and piece the report back together, time of which our executives don't have, this is subject to errors too.

More details

In on-prem OBIEE, our reports are working fine but not in OAC due to the  maximum 100 sections restriction. We hope you will be able to increase the sections, or we will have to look for alternative reporting tools that can satisfy our business needs.

100 sections is a lot.  500K is not possible.  You indicate you cannot refactor the reports to have less than 100.  Is there a specific number that would work?  From our knowledge 100 is far more than almost all customers use and we would like to get more insight on why the section count cannot be reduced.
