Ah! I interpreted this to say that there was a limit of 65,500 entries in the file allocation table for a given folder and that file names that exceed the 8.3 length would use additional entries in the FAT, from 2 to 13 entries per file. If that were true then 12,401 files with long file names could use up the 65,500 limit if and only if the file names required over 5.x entries per file.
I will let you know how the UUID works out.
Thanks!
