Heavy luggage is hard to handle and there is always some person involved with the lifting and shoving. So there is a weight limit.
By the way, for those of us who are talented enough to pack a bag without a scale repeated to 49.9 pounds... I assure you that your luggage will be handled like a 3rd string quarterback in the superbowl.... I believe I've replaced 3 suitcases in the past year. One was an old suitcase...the next was less than 3 months old and the 3rd was the one the airline sent me as a replacement for the second one....
