Inappropriate?Look at the sequencer source code file BlinkMSequencer.pde, line 114-5:
// number of slices in the timeline == number of script lines written to BlinkM
int numSlices = 48;
I’m undecided

Inappropriate?The "numSlices" variable in BlinkMSequencer reflects the hardware limit in BlinkM of the maximum number of light script commands a light script can have. You cannot make it larger.
If BlinkMs are being controlled by some external microcontroller (e.g. Arduino), there is no limit on the length of the light pattern loop, as the microcontroller can act as the conductor. For BlinkMs playing a stored light script (as what the BlinkMSequencer is really for), then the maximum time a light script can be is about 6.8 minutes.
The user-modifiable light script slot is 48 steps long. Each step is a different BlinkM command. And each step can last for 255 "ticks" in duration. A tick is 1/30th of a second. Thus the maximum time for a single step is 8.5 seconds, and the maximum time for and entire script is around 6.8 minutes.
