Max
Identifies theme files that are larger than Shopify's maximum file size for their path. This check applies to Liquid, JSON, and asset files in size-limited theme directories, and ignores files in the _drafts directory.
Asset file limits use the full UTF-8 byte size. For non-asset file limits, Theme Check doesn't count bytes inside {% schema %} tags toward the file-size limit.
