That's probably true: I at least didn't test it to the failure point. Since
you can only have a flat (root) directory, it doesn't make sense to dump
everything imaginable into one pile and pick from there. It's not really
practical. So, unless/until a subdirectory structure becomes part of the
image-choosing scheme, a reasonable scheme would be to keep only your first
couple hundred favorite disk images on a stick at a time. ;-)

ISTR that the FAT filesystem had a hard limit for number of files in the root directory.
