Uncompressed file exceeds maximum file size Of ###GBs <either Apple does not know this number or it is a secret!
Google does not know either, or a few searches turned up nothing.

Does anyone know?

Or, you can keep complaining that no one is giving you the answer. The choice is yours.

That has also been my experience.
Did you contact Apple Support and ask them?
It probably is not due to an APFS limit since that is 8 Exabytes
Does Apple know the size limit for Garageband exports?
