Not quite. I'm not suggesting that a single HTLC be limited in size. I'm suggesting that the sum of all simultaneous HTLCs for a given channel be limited.

Of course, setting the maximum HTLC value and the maximum number of HTLCs does that indirectly. But not as efficiently as a max HTLC sum limit.

Also, in your article you have links to specific lines in files on GitHub. Those links are broken because you linked to master, rather than a specific git commit. You can hit the "y" key to get a stable URL for a specific git commit in GitHub.
