Is there a limit to the number of phone numbers per contact outside the size of the contact info?

Trying to generate a vcf w/ a list of numbers and wondering if there is a limit to the number of phone numbers a contact can have outside of "physcial" size of the contact.

Am I now limited in the number of phone numbers I can add to a contact in iOS14? I have a number of 'contacts' where I add up to several dozen phone numbers associated with a particular organization where it is not worthwhile to enter separately for each one but to have them entered as a contact so those calls are rung through appropriately (I do want to answer everything from company X at times, for example). I also use this to keep track of blocked numbers. It looks like I cannot do this past about 10 numbers for iOS14 on the new phone, although my contacts created previously on computer and on the iOS12 phone are honored with their 20 or more numbers. I just cannot add to them on the new phone. Is there a setting that can fix this? And yes, I am off to give feedback to Apple. iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14.2

The vcf format may have limits itself either on export or import to the 3rd party Contact app..
